[5:05] Olaf: Correct again!
[5:07] J.J.: This is awesome!
[5:09] J.J.: Welcome back to the Movie Theater! It's Trivia Night, and I'm excited to be back in the hot seat.
[5:19] Olaf: That's right! It's been a while since we've done trivia, and I can't wait to see how well you do today.
[5:29] J.J.: Yeah, I'm a little nervous, but I think I can handle it.
[5:39] Olaf: Well, let's get started! Are you ready for your first question?
[5:47] J.J.: Bring it on!
[5:55] Olaf: Okay, here we go. Question one: In what year was the original "Jurassic Park" released?
[6:29] J.J.: Oh man, I know this one! That was 1993.
[6:51] Olaf: Correct! You’re off to a great start.
[7:11] J.J.: Phew! I was worried I might blank on that.
[7:39] Olaf: No need to worry! Here’s your next question: Who directed the film "Pulp Fiction"?
[7:49] J.J.: That would be Quentin Tarantino.
[8:09] Olaf: Right again! You're on a roll.
[8:19] J.J.: This is fun! Keep them coming.
[8:29] Olaf: Alright, question three: What is the highest-grossing film of all time, as of now?
[8:57] J.J.: That's a tough one, but I believe it's "Avatar."
[9:07] Olaf: Correct! "Avatar" is indeed the highest-grossing film.
[9:17] J.J.: Nice! I’m feeling good about this.
[9:27] Olaf: Here’s your next question: Which actress played the lead role in "The Hunger Games"?
[9:53] J.J.: That would be Jennifer Lawrence.
[10:03] Olaf: You got it! You're really nailing this trivia.
[10:13] J.J.: Thanks! I’m just getting warmed up.
[10:23] Olaf: Okay, question five: What animated film features a character named Woody?
[10:47] J.J.: That’s "Toy Story."
[10:57] Olaf: Correct again! You're on fire!
[11:17] J.J.: I’m loving this!
[11:37] Olaf: Alright, let’s keep it going. Question six: Who played the Joker in "The Dark Knight"?
[11:57] J.J.: Heath Ledger.
[12:17] Olaf: Absolutely right! You’re doing amazing.
[12:37] J.J.: Thanks! This is a blast!
[13:00] J.J.: That answer also knew the first answer, so I feel like the people that were upset at me for getting the first one wrong are gonna give me a little bit of a, like, okay, you're okay, 'cause I got that one correct, unless they've listened to all of these and they are firmly in the I hope he gets it wrong camp.
[13:19] Olaf: We have a following.
[13:20] J.J.: I believe that there are people out there that want me to not get them right.
[13:26] Olaf: Yeah, me. I'm right there at the you're the leader of this following.
[13:31] J.J.: Come on, guys, we can get them. Moving on, question three. What was the first movie to use profanity?
[13:38] Olaf: What?
[13:46] J.J.: Like the word profanity? What was the first movie to use profanity?
[13:51] Olaf: Oh my goodness. I mean, that's a deep cut, man. I mean, I'm going way back. That's nobody. People would need more than 20 seconds for this one. This is, to me, obscure. Time's up. Your answer, first movie to use profanity. Can I get a year that the movie came out in?
[14:12] J.J.: No. Can I get a decade?
[14:14] Olaf: No. Was it in the question?
[14:19] J.J.: No, and that's why I'm asking. It should have been in the question. In the year such-and-such.
[14:25] Olaf: Yeah, Mr. I know the years of everything.
[14:28] J.J.: Yeah, that's what I'm going to do. I might as well just write in the answer if I do that. This is going to be totally wrong: Midnight Cowboy.
[14:38] Olaf: J.J. submits Midnight Cowboy as his answer. Judges?
[14:44] J.J.: Of course it's wrong.
[14:46] Olaf: Yeah. Midnight Cowboy? Really?
[14:49] J.J.: Well, I didn't, I mean, I really, I couldn't think of anything from the '50s that probably, I'm sure I probably something before then.
[14:56] Olaf: The answer to the question, what was the first movie to use profanity?
[15:02] J.J.: Well, frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.
[15:04] Olaf: It is Gone with the Wind.
[15:07] J.J.: I don't even consider that to be profanity, but okay, Gone with the Wind, please.
[15:12] Olaf: Hey, damn, you be careful. The people that you're, that are in your camp that want me to not succeed are going to quickly might turn on you because that question is a little suspect.
[15:25] J.J.: Sorry, what? There's a lot of cheering going on behind me from... I will say this, if you had said 1939, that probably would have given it away.
[15:38] Olaf: Yeah, I know you.
[15:42] J.J.: Well, it either been that or Wizard of Oz, and I don't think Wizard of Oz had any profanity.
[15:48] Olaf: No, I don't think it did. I don't think so.
[15:50] J.J.: No. All right, so that's two incorrect answers out of three.
[15:56] Olaf: I love it. Oh man, here we go with number four. What was the first animated film to be nominated for Best Picture?
[16:09] J.J.: See, now I don't want to fall into a trap because I know you're not asking this. I don't feel like this is a trick question.
[16:17] J.J.: So I'm pretty confident with the answer. This is me giving the audience time to sort of formulate what they feel their answer is, but my answer is going to be, time's up, Beauty and the Beast, the 1991 Walt Disney animated Beauty and the Beast.
[16:34] Olaf: Judges?
[16:44] J.J.: You got it right! Disney's Beauty and the Beast was the first animated film to be nominated for Best Picture.
[16:47] Olaf: Did I think you would know this? Absolutely. Why? It had to do with the Oscars.
[16:54] J.J.: Well, I love how you're that. I feel like now you've got these and you're going, these are going to be ones he's definitely going to get, and so if I can keep him under 500, I'm gonna be really happy.
[17:04] Olaf: So anything like if you could get me seven and eight, six and nine, I think you're going to be really happy.
[17:10] J.J.: Well, you're two and five hundred right now.
[17:13] Olaf: I know I got it. I got to get a couple of answers above questions above 500 to give myself some cushion here.
[17:21] Olaf: Well, let's see how you do with our next question.
[17:37] J.J.: Question five. Who was the first female director to earn over a hundred million dollars at the box office?
[17:51] Olaf: Hmm. Okay.
[17:56] J.J.: We know what's sad is that there aren't that many female directors that would like fall into at this point. I don't think fall into this sort of category of that. So I've got a handful here, sadly. I can probably list them on one hand, which is unfortunate, and that's time. My answer is Penny Marshall.
[18:14] Olaf: But I don't know if that's a... I think I'm gonna go. I'm gonna go with Penny Marshall.
[18:16] J.J.: JJ's going with Penny Marshall, A League of Their Own.
[18:23] Olaf: Was it A League of Their Own?
[18:24] J.J.: Well, if I was giving bonus points, I would sweetly happily give you a big old no.
[18:31] Olaf: Oh, okay. It was Big.
[18:33] J.J.: Okay, but the correct answer was Penny Marshall.
[18:36] Olaf: Yes. I was like throwing that between like Penny Marshall and Barbra Streisand, you know, I didn't know how Prince of Tides did, but yeah, no, it was Big. Big.
[18:46] J.J.: Okay, first female director to earn over a hundred million at the box office. Nice.
[18:52] Olaf: And again, I just broke my rules that I put in place of don't ask about the Oscars. Don't ask about Tom Hanks.
[18:58] J.J.: Well, it's not, but well, to me, it wasn't about Tom Hanks as much as, like I said, how I knew you would somehow backtrace it from Tom Hanks.
[19:10] Olaf: It was really my, I told you my trees of Tom Hanks. I told you my train of thought at how many female directors are really that would have had that type of monetary success at the box office, and sadly, I don't think there are that many.
[19:25] J.J.: There's not that many, and so that's how I got to it. That just so happened that Tom Hanks is in both of those movies.
[19:32] Olaf: Yeah, so I mean that's on me, my frustration of you getting that correct.
[19:38] J.J.: You hear that? You hear that? It's a lot of booing behind you.
[19:42] Olaf: Yeah, boo, do better.
[19:47] J.J.: All right, moving on to number six. Question six. Sidney Poitier has starred in several classic films such as In the Heat of the Night and Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? What was his final theatrical film?
[20:12] J.J.: Wow, man, Sidney, he didn't act too much later in life. Like, I don't think this is it because I honestly, and this is going to bug me, but if I don't know the answer, which I don't think I do, it's going to be nice to get the answer because the last movie I can remember him in, and I don't think this is right, Sneakers, and that was like 1992 though.
[20:35] Olaf: So that Sneakers is my answer, but I don't think that's correct.
[20:38] J.J.: J.J. is going with Sneakers.
[20:42] Olaf: Yeah, incorrect. Sidney's final film was 1997's The Jackal.
[20:54] J.J.: Oh, starring Bruce Willis and Richard Gere.
[20:57] Olaf: Of course.
[20:59] J.J.: I forgot. Yeah, that was his last one.
[21:02] Olaf: Huh? Yep. Wow.
[21:05] J.J.: I actually really like that film.
[21:07] Olaf: That's, yeah, I agree.
[21:08] J.J.: That's, I'm trying to decide if it's more of a guilty pleasure or forgotten gem to me.
[21:15] Olaf: It's a forgotten gem because I think it's a well-done movie, but Sidney Poitier was great at it.
[21:21] J.J.: Oh, yeah.
[21:22] Olaf: Yeah.
[21:23] J.J.: I mean, when you said it, I went, of course, and I can see him in the movie, but I just, I haven't seen that one in a really long time.
[21:33] Olaf: All right, so he got another one wrong, guys. Moving on to question number seven. Now, no pressure on this one. I feel like a lot of people will be mad at you if you get it wrong.
[21:46] J.J.: Great.
[21:49] Olaf: Here we go. Number seven. In Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, what animal does Professor McGonagall shapeshift into?
[22:01] J.J.: Okay. She shapeshifts into a cat.
[22:13] Olaf: Cat. That's your guess.
[22:16] J.J.: That's my answer. You're going with a cat.
[22:22] Olaf: All right. I was giving it 20 seconds.
[22:24] J.J.: Oh, you're waiting for the full 20.
[22:26] Olaf: I mean, I could go on about how I'm not really a cat person.
[22:31] J.J.: Well, I like dogs. When you feel confident about an answer, you start going on a long story about something else, right?
[22:36] Olaf: Right. So I didn't this time, and so now you're making me, you're trying to make me question my answer.
[22:42] J.J.: You know, the funny thing about felines is...
[22:48] Olaf: No, it is.
[22:52] J.J.: Is it a cat?
[22:56] Olaf: It is a cat.
[22:59] J.J.: Yes, a bit of a softball question. Very much so.
[23:03] Olaf: But the way you presented it started to sort of stress me out. The audience is going to be really mad at you if you get this wrong.
[23:14] J.J.: And then I started with, in Harry Potter, I know like a million questions that everybody, that most people listening would be like, we know these, we know this, don't mess this up.
[23:16] Olaf: Yeah, so they might be booing you for the softball.
[23:20] J.J.: You know, there was a part of me that when I made that question, I was kind of hoping that it was so easy that I overthink it, that it would throw you off.
[23:29] Olaf: No. Well, there's just such an iconic scene when you, when they go into the class.
[23:34] J.J.: Yeah, and the cat sitting on the desk and then she, you know, what I find odd is that she doesn't ever shapeshift ever again.
[23:41] Olaf: She does it at the very beginning of the movie.
[23:43] J.J.: Doesn't she when, like when they're on the street, Dumbledore, they're waiting for Hagrid?
[23:48] Olaf: Ooh, she, I think that's the first time. I would have to rewatch it, but I don't think so.
[23:56] J.J.: Oh, see, you're gonna lose the audience because I think she does.
[24:03] Olaf: I'm not so sure, but either way, the first movie's the only time it happens, and then it's just forgotten.
[24:04] J.J.: I feel like if I could shapeshift in this stuff, I would do it more.
[24:07] Olaf: Do it all the time.
[24:09] J.J.: Maybe she does, you just don't see it.
[24:10] Olaf: Maybe every time she's right before we see her, she's already, she's been walking around the school as a cat, and before class, she's just up in one of those little scratch post trees.
[24:21] J.J.: Yeah, just lounging, but she's probably like really vulnerable as the cat.
[24:25] Olaf: I don't want to be getting snatched up by...
[24:28] J.J.: I don't know. They're pretty quick. They're pretty agile.
[24:30] Olaf: Yeah, it's true.
[24:32] J.J.: Okay, here we go, moving on to number eight. Question eight.
[24:38] Olaf: How you feeling, by the way?
[24:39] J.J.: Well, here's the thing. At this point, I'm at 500, and now I need to get my mind right because I, for whatever reason, I've lowered my own expectation, and I'm going, if I can just break, if I can just get over 500, I'm going to consider that a win for me, and that's a horrible way of thinking.
[24:57] Olaf: I need to come out of here and get the next 10 right and go, you know what, I missed four, but I got a lot of that.
[25:05] J.J.: I got 11 right because right now we're at four and four, right?
[25:08] Olaf: I think it's where we're question nine.
[25:10] J.J.: We're at question eight or question eight.
[25:12] Olaf: Oh, let's see. You've got, you got the first one wrong. You got the second one right. You got the third one wrong. You got the fourth one right. You got the fifth one right. You got the sixth one wrong, and you got the seventh one right.
[25:28] J.J.: So you've got three wrong, four right.
[25:32] Olaf: Okay, so I'm four three.
[25:33] J.J.: Okay, either way, I shouldn't be over here going, well, as long as I stay above 500.
[25:37] Olaf: No, no, no. I need to get my mind right.
[25:38] J.J.: A lot trying to remember. Is this your worst performance so far?
[25:44] Olaf: Um, I don't know. I think you've had...
[25:45] J.J.: I'm borderline getting there, like the second episode.
[25:51] Olaf: I feel like I had got like four wrong. The one when we did one with Johnny is probably my worst one.
[25:55] J.J.: Yeah, and I think you were blaming Johnny for that.
[25:58] Olaf: I might have, I don't know. It's been...
[26:00] J.J.: This is a long video. Who remembers?
[26:02] Olaf: I think you said something like I was playing down to my competition.
[26:05] J.J.: I don't know if I said that!
[26:07] Olaf: I was like, wow...
[26:08] J.J.: Johnny might have said that!
[26:10] Olaf: I thought Johnny did a great job.
[26:12] J.J.: I thought he did, too. I thought he did well as well.
[26:14] Olaf: He might even be in the lead right now if he were playing.
[26:17] J.J.: Maybe.
[26:21] Olaf: All right. Okay, shots fired.
[26:24] J.J.: All right, let's get back to the trivia.
[26:27] Olaf: Question number eight.
[26:30] J.J.: How many years was the genie stuck in the lamp in Disney's Aladdin?
[26:38] Olaf: Ooh, that's such a great question.
[26:41] J.J.: And because Robin Williams is so iconic at everything, right, and in this,
[26:49] he makes such a huge point right when he gets out of the bottle.
[26:54] Olaf: Yeah, I know.
[26:55] J.J.: To say 10,000 years, if I'm at 10,000 years, can give you such a crick in the neck.
[27:02] Olaf: 10,000 years is my answer.
[27:08] J.J.: Yes, you are correct.
[27:11] Olaf: 10,000 years.
[27:14] J.J.: You know, for some people, numbers can throw them off.
[27:19] Olaf: You, on the other hand, I don't know why I would think that with you and your dates and everything.
[27:24] J.J.: Well, again, it's just the way he is.
[27:26] Olaf: He has such a lyrical way of performing, too.
[27:29] J.J.: You know what I mean?
[27:30] Olaf: Yeah, I know.
[27:31] J.J.: So that's.
[27:32] Olaf: Oh, man.
[27:33] J.J.: All right.
[27:34] Olaf: So you got that one right.
[27:36] J.J.: Which I feel like you thought I was going to get wrong.
[27:41] Olaf: I always hope.
[27:42] J.J.: I always hope.
[27:44] Olaf: All right, let's.
[27:45] J.J.: Halfway there or halfway there.
[27:47] Olaf: You know what? I am cautiously optimistic that we've got you on this next one.
[27:54] J.J.: Cautiously optimistic.
[27:56] Olaf: OK.
[27:57] J.J.: All right, here we go.
[27:58] Olaf: Question number nine.
[28:00] J.J.: Number nine.
[28:01] Olaf: Angela Lansbury, David Tomlinson and Roddy McDowell starred together in what Disney movie?
[28:13] J.J.: Oh, wow.
[28:17] Olaf: I feel like I mean, I think I haven't seen if it's a movie I'm thinking of.
[28:21] J.J.: I haven't seen it in a really long time.
[28:23] Olaf: You almost had me on the second name, but then you mentioned Roddy McDowell and Angela Lansbury.
[28:28] J.J.: Aside from Beauty and the Beast as an animated character, I don't think she did a lot of like Disney.
[28:32] Olaf: That's super popular.
[28:34] J.J.: My answer is Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
[28:37] Olaf: Bedknobs and Broomsticks is my final answer.
[28:40] J.J.: Judges?
[28:44] Olaf: Yes.
[28:45] J.J.: Son of a gun.
[28:46] Olaf: Yes.
[28:47] J.J.: Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
[28:48] Olaf: I was getting that and Chitty Chitty Bang Bang mixed up.
[28:50] J.J.: I almost said Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, which has nothing to do with it.
[28:53] Olaf: I would have happily taken.
[28:54] J.J.: You would have been like your grin, your smile.
[28:56] Olaf: You would have had the Joker smile.
[28:57] J.J.: But it's Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
[28:59] Olaf: I haven't seen that movie in so long.
[29:01] J.J.: I'm going to have to rewatch that.
[29:03] Olaf: Your kids will love it.
[29:05] J.J.: Yeah, I know.
[29:07] Olaf: Is that a forgotten gem?
[29:09] J.J.: Yeah, it might be.
[29:11] Olaf: I need to.
[29:12] J.J.: It's been a minute since I've watched it as well.
[29:15] Olaf: Yeah, I wonder how if it still holds up.
[29:19] J.J.: Moving on.
[29:20] Olaf: We're in the back five here.
[29:22] J.J.: Is this question 10?
[29:23] Olaf: Question 10.
[29:24] J.J.: Question 10, okay.
[29:25] Olaf: Number 10.
[29:40] J.J.: I'm sorry, that's it?
[29:41] Olaf: Of all the movies that have ever been made?
[29:47] J.J.: What year?
[29:49] Olaf: Had the biggest financial loss ever?
[29:53] J.J.: The Guinness World Records of like this Guinness World Records?
[29:57] Olaf: Or like the one from, I mean.
[29:59] J.J.: According to Guinness Book of World Records.
[30:07] Olaf: What movie had the biggest financial loss ever?
[30:10] J.J.: I just gave you 30 seconds instead of 20, by the way.
[30:13] Olaf: Well, I haven't really been.
[30:14] J.J.: I guess if I.
[30:16] Olaf: The biggest financial loss ever.
[30:19] J.J.: Yeah, I'll give you a little extra time, but the timer has long since stopped.
[30:26] Olaf: I'm just going to throw one out there because I don't really.
[30:29] J.J.: And watch him get it correct.
[30:31] Olaf: That's going to drive me nuts.
[30:33] I'm going to go with Ishtar with Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty.
[30:39] J.J.: Ishtar is your answer.
[30:41] Olaf: Yes.
[30:45] J.J.: Incorrect.
[30:46] Olaf: I'm watching your mouth.
[30:48] J.J.: We got him.
[30:53] Olaf: According to the Guinness Book of World Records.
[30:57] J.J.: The movie that had the biggest financial loss ever was the disastrous.
[31:03] Olaf: And I just rewatched it too for fun.
[31:06] J.J.: Oh, wow.
[31:07] Olaf: Cutthroat Island.
[31:08] J.J.: Oh, of course.
[31:10] Olaf: I don't know if I've honestly.
[31:12] J.J.: I don't think I've ever seen that movie because of all of that.
[31:15] Olaf: When it came out, I remember all of that.
[31:17] J.J.: I was like, I don't need to see this.
[31:19] Olaf: It's pretty bad.
[31:20] J.J.: But strangely, it's like it's got a lot of great effects and sets and practical effects.
[31:26] Olaf: And this is Andrew.
[31:28] J.J.: Andrew Davis.
[31:31] Olaf: I'd have to look it up.
[31:32] J.J.: I forget.
[31:33] Olaf: Gina Davis.
[31:34] J.J.: Rennie Harlan director.
[31:35] Olaf: Rennie Harlan.
[31:36] J.J.: Rennie Harlan.
[31:37] Olaf: That's what I was thinking.
[31:38] J.J.: Married to Gina Davis.
[31:39] Olaf: Right.
[31:40] J.J.: Gina Davis.
[31:42] Olaf: Who I have always loved.
[31:43] J.J.: Yeah.
[31:44] Olaf: Put in one of the worst performances.
[31:47] J.J.: The acting in this movie and the script is terrible.
[31:52] Olaf: See, I forgot about that movie.
[31:54] J.J.: I think it's probably because I've never seen it.
[31:56] Olaf: But historically, I know all of that.
[31:58] J.J.: So when you said it, I'm like, well, that totally makes sense.
[32:00] Olaf: It cost $115 million and it made $10 million.
[32:05] J.J.: Wow.
[32:06] Olaf: I recommend watching it because for some people, it could be a guilty pleasure.
[32:13] J.J.: I'm just saying.
[32:15] Olaf: It could be.
[32:16] J.J.: But it's not a good movie.
[32:19] Olaf: And in fact, it kind of killed the idea of anyone doing a pirate movie for a long time until Pirates of the Caribbean.
[32:29] J.J.: Pirates of the Caribbean.
[32:30] Olaf: Yeah.
[32:31] J.J.: She did bounce back, though, with Long Kiss Goodnight right after that.
[32:34] Olaf: Oh, yeah.
[32:35] J.J.: I love that movie.
[32:36] Olaf: Yeah.
[32:37] J.J.: I love that movie.
[32:38] Olaf: But yeah.
[32:39] J.J.: Cutthroat Island.
[32:40] Olaf: So bad.
[32:42] J.J.: Cutthroat this.
[32:44] Olaf: I recommend watching it and just knowing it's going to be bad.
[32:48] J.J.: So just have fun watching it.
[32:50] Olaf: Yeah.
[32:51] J.J.: Anywho.
[32:52] Olaf: You got it wrong.
[32:55] J.J.: Question 11.
[32:57] Olaf: I'm going to goldfish that one and move on.
[33:00] J.J.: Here we go.
[33:01] Olaf: Question number 11.
[33:04] J.J.: What is the highest grossing movie musical to date?
[33:13] Olaf: Okay.
[33:14] J.J.: I feel like you're trying to sneaky.
[33:17] Olaf: You're trying to sneak one in on me, hoping that I'll overthink this.
[33:22] J.J.: I'm going to semi-confidently say that the highest grossing musical to date is Wicked.
[33:29] Olaf: Part one.
[33:31] J.J.: Judges?
[33:34] Olaf: Incorrect.
[33:36] J.J.: To date, the highest grossing movie musical is The Lion King with over a billion dollars.
[33:45] Olaf: That's sneaky.
[33:46] J.J.: I don't consider that.
[33:48] Olaf: Of course, it's sneaky.
[33:49] J.J.: How is that sneaky?
[33:50] Olaf: I asked, what is the highest grossing movie musical to date?
[33:55] J.J.: It is The Lion King.
[33:57] Olaf: The animated one or the other one?
[33:59] J.J.: Or is the other one not?
[34:00] Olaf: I can't remember.
[34:01] J.J.: Is the other one got music in it?
[34:02] Olaf: I think it has music in it.
[34:03] J.J.: Yeah, it has music in it.
[34:04] Olaf: No, it's the animated.
[34:06] J.J.: OK.
[34:09] Olaf: We'll do some fact checking on that one, everybody, on my side.
[34:11] J.J.: Oh my gosh, because I don't do that ahead of time.
[34:15] Olaf: Oh my gosh.
[34:17] J.J.: Okay.
[34:18] Olaf: I've got to defend myself in some way.
[34:20] J.J.: I'm just going to fold.
[34:21] Olaf: I'm just going to lay down on this.
[34:33] J.J.: So what?
[34:34] Olaf: Are you five and five?
[34:36] J.J.: No, I'm seven and five.
[34:37] Olaf: Let's calm down here.
[34:39] J.J.: We're on question 13.
[34:40] Olaf: Oh, yeah.
[34:41] J.J.: Math.
[34:44] Olaf: No, we're on question 12.
[34:46] J.J.: You are six and five, my friend.
[34:48] Olaf: I'm six and five?
[34:49] J.J.: Oh, I thought we were on question 13.
[34:50] Olaf: Sorry.
[34:51] J.J.: Who taught you math?
[34:54] Olaf: Math.
[34:55] J.J.: Well, you are also incorrect.
[34:58] Olaf: Two plus two is five.
[34:59] J.J.: No, it's not.
[35:00] Olaf: It's six.
[35:01] J.J.: I got you.
[35:06] Olaf: You are so mad at that question.
[35:08] J.J.: That's sneaky.
[35:09] Olaf: It's not a bad question.
[35:10] J.J.: It's just a sneaky question.
[35:11] Olaf: There's nothing wrong with being sneaky.
[35:13] J.J.: I don't understand how that is a sneaky question.
[35:15] Olaf: Sneaky.
[35:16] J.J.: The question was pretty straightforward.
[35:18] Olaf: This is now, I don't know.
[35:20] J.J.: I don't know.
[35:21] Olaf: I don't know.
[35:22] J.J.: I don't know.
[35:23] Olaf: I don't know.
[35:24] J.J.: This is now proven to be your worst performance in the trivia.
[35:31] Olaf: Which is your only goal at this point.
[35:33] J.J.: I could get the rest of them correct and it's not going to matter because I got five of them wrong.
[35:38] Olaf: And that's, you're right.
[35:40] J.J.: I mean, I'm pretty sure I was up front from the beginning of this trivia going, we are out to get you.
[35:49] Olaf: Be careful.
[35:50] J.J.: Eventually, I become the underdog.
[35:52] Olaf: And then that's when the tables turn.
[35:55] J.J.: Yeah.
[35:56] Olaf: I mean, there's always a chance that someday people might have sympathy.
[36:00] J.J.: This is how I rise.
[36:01] Olaf: This is how I rise from adversity.
[36:03] J.J.: If anyone listens to these trivia episodes back to back to back.
[36:08] Olaf: Don't do that.
[36:11] J.J.: You've got a long way to go before you're getting sympathy.
[36:14] Olaf: Don't do that, everybody.
[36:15] J.J.: Listen to them in the way that they were intended to be listened to the day they were released.
[36:23] Olaf: All right, here we go.
[36:24] J.J.: I can't wait for this one.
[36:26] Olaf: Oh, great.
[36:28] J.J.: Question number 12.
[36:31] Olaf: Number 12.
[36:34] J.J.: Lee Marvin, John Wayne, and James Stewart starred in what classic Western?
[36:45] Olaf: Lee Marvin.
[36:46] J.J.: Who is it?
[36:47] Olaf: I'm sorry, who is it again?
[36:48] J.J.: Lee Marvin.
[36:49] Olaf: John Wayne.
[36:50] J.J.: John Wayne.
[36:51] Olaf: James Stewart.
[36:52] J.J.: Okay.
[36:54] Olaf: Man.
[36:55] J.J.: Dynamite trio there.
[36:58] Olaf: I've got two movies that are rattling around in my head.
[37:02] J.J.: Well, the timer says you need to pick one of them.
[37:04] Olaf: I'm going to go with The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance.
[37:07] J.J.: Judges?
[37:10] Olaf: Yes!
[37:14] J.J.: I was really hoping you would get that wrong.
[37:16] Olaf: And so many fans of the Western genre were going to be furious with you.
[37:23] J.J.: I got you guys and gals.
[37:26] Olaf: This is another one of those.
[37:28] J.J.: This was a definite of, if I include James Stewart.
[37:33] Olaf: And I like how you said James Stewart, not Jimmy Stewart.
[37:37] J.J.: This is James Stewart we're talking about.
[37:38] Olaf: You want to check the credits on that?
[37:39] J.J.: Oh, I know.
[37:41] Olaf: Maybe that's what it was.
[37:44] J.J.: Guns of Navarone was the other one that popped in my head.
[37:47] Olaf: I think it's a John Wayne movie.
[37:49] J.J.: Plus, I did say classic Western.
[37:52] Olaf: You did.
[37:53] J.J.: So I was like, 20 seconds isn't enough time.
[37:57] Olaf: I'm six and five.
[37:58] J.J.: I thought I was seven and five.
[38:01] Olaf: Well, now you're seven and five.
[38:03] J.J.: Now I am.
[38:07] Olaf: I thought that was a good question.
[38:09] J.J.: I was hoping to get you on that one.
[38:10] Olaf: But I was also worried about including Jimmy Stewart in the cast.
[38:15] J.J.: That might give it away.
[38:17] Olaf: I felt like if I didn't put James Stewart in, that would be considered sneaky.
[38:22] J.J.: I understand the thought process.
[38:24] Olaf: You got it right.
[38:25] J.J.: So you're like, it wasn't sneaky.
[38:27] Olaf: It's only when you get it wrong where you're like, sneaky question.
[38:30] J.J.: Too many qualifiers.
[38:33] Olaf: All right, seven and five.
[38:35] J.J.: Going on to lucky number 13.
[38:38] Olaf: Question 13.
[38:40] J.J.: Meryl Streep plays Miranda Priestly in what film?
[38:46] Olaf: Oh, okay.
[38:51] J.J.: Meryl Streep got a pretty long list of films here.
[38:55] Olaf: But we're circling back to question number one.
[38:58] So...
[39:00] J.J. Gonzalez: The answer is The Devil Wears Prada. Don't worry all you fans, I'm not going to get that one wrong. I may get the magazine wrong, but I'm not going to get the actual movie wrong. The Devil Wears Prada. I'm actually, as I was reading it, because it's been a minute since I looked at these, and I'm reading it and I'm like, I don't know what I was thinking. Such an iconic character.
[39:24] Olaf Adzit: Yeah.
[39:24] J.J. Gonzalez: 20 years old, already the movie. It's just crazy to me. I really enjoy this movie. I think this was the movie where I was like, oh, Anne Hathaway, you can do no wrong for me. Well, this was to me her, like, this was her, aside from, you know, she broke out of Disney and all that, this was her first movie to sort of put her in that.
[39:45] Olaf Adzit: Yeah, I guess, but if you watch The Princess Diaries, it's easy to, like, fall for.
[39:50] J.J. Gonzalez: Yeah, but there's something, there's a different thing in this movie.
[39:54] Olaf Adzit: Yeah.
[39:55] J.J. Gonzalez: That I agree with, in terms of, like, the perception and how you see her, and you're like, oh, well, yeah. What I don't understand is why, there seems to be a lot of people that do not like Anne Hathaway.
[40:07] Olaf Adzit: Well, that's just, I think, her, I mean, that's a whole other thing, but, like, her, I think, not so much now more than maybe before, like, just her, I think how she would handle herself in interviews and things like that, maybe, persona-wise, but I don't know. But I know that she has that sort of negative feel to her.
[40:28] J.J. Gonzalez: Yeah, there's a lot of people not in love with her.
[40:31] Olaf Adzit: Right.
[40:32] J.J. Gonzalez: I thought she was a great Catwoman.
[40:34] Olaf Adzit: Yeah, she did great. I thought so, too.
[40:36] J.J. Gonzalez: I would have liked to have seen her play that character in a different movie.
[40:41] Olaf Adzit: Okay. Would you have been okay with her getting her own movie as Catwoman?
[40:45] J.J. Gonzalez: Possibly. It just depends on, you know, how they make that movie.
[40:51] Olaf Adzit: No, no, I'm just saying, you would have been okay watching her for two hours as that character in her own, as opposed to, like, Halle Berry as Catwoman, I guess is what I'm saying.
[41:00] J.J. Gonzalez: Well, nothing against Halle Berry, but that movie was just god-awful and it had nothing to do with Catwoman.
[41:06] Olaf Adzit: Anything, right.
[41:07] J.J. Gonzalez: But, yeah, no, I think if someone, if Christopher Nolan wasn't interested in making a Catwoman movie with Anne Hathaway and somebody else was like, well, I'll do it, as long as it, like, you know, held up to the world that Christopher Nolan had created, yeah, absolutely, I think I would have enjoyed that. But the problem is Dark Knight Rises isn't, like, the strongest of those movies.
[41:34] Olaf Adzit: Right, right, right, of course.
[41:35] J.J. Gonzalez: And I wasn't a huge fan of some of the story choices that were made in that movie, so I would have liked to have seen her in a Christopher Nolan Batman movie that just was a different movie.
[41:49] Olaf Adzit: Right.
[41:50] J.J. Gonzalez: But for what she did in it, I thought she was great. All right, moving on.
[41:54] Olaf Adzit: Fourteen.
[41:55] J.J. Gonzalez: Number fourteen. The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow is a magical land featured in what Disney movie?
[42:07] Olaf Adzit: The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow.
[42:12] J.J. Gonzalez: Ooh. That's a great question, because I don't even know what that is. I feel bad now, because I feel like I should know.
[42:23] Olaf Adzit: I feel like you should know, too.
[42:24] J.J. Gonzalez: Right. And the timer's up. Disney's got such a huge library. The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow.
[42:31] Olaf Adzit: Yes.
[42:35] J.J. Gonzalez: The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow is a magical land featured in what Disney movie? Your answer is...
[42:44] Olaf Adzit: Sorry, hold on. Is this mic on? I'm still here. My mic cut out for a minute.
[42:55] J.J. Gonzalez: The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow is featured in the Disney movie... Because now I'm like, is it animated, is it live action? I'm going to go with Pinocchio.
[43:07] Olaf Adzit: Judges?
[43:10] J.J. Gonzalez: Judges do not need that long to deliberate. You know that.
[43:13] Olaf Adzit: It's called dramatic effect.
[43:17] J.J. Gonzalez: The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow is a magical land featured in the Disney movie Mary Poppins.
[43:24] Olaf Adzit: Of course.
[43:25] J.J. Gonzalez: That's what it was called. Mary Poppins.
[43:27] Olaf Adzit: Of course.
[43:29] J.J. Gonzalez: Mary? That's a great question. That's a great question. I'm mad at myself. I'm not mad at the question. That's a great question.
[43:35] Olaf Adzit: Oh, is it not sneaky?
[43:36] J.J. Gonzalez: No, no. It's a great question. I just... You got it wrong. I'm going to give you that one. That was a great question.
[43:43] Olaf Adzit: Thank you very much.
[43:44] J.J. Gonzalez: You are welcome. It took 45 questions. I'm going to give you that one. You are at...
[43:48] Olaf Adzit: Eight and six.
[43:49] J.J. Gonzalez: Seven and six?
[43:50] Olaf Adzit: No, I'm at eight and six.
[43:51] J.J. Gonzalez: Oh, sorry. We're on 14. Eight and six.
[43:54] Olaf Adzit: Sorry. Eight and six. Yep. We're good with that. I'm going to finish above 500, but...
[44:01] J.J. Gonzalez: Worst performance to date in trivia.
[44:04] Olaf Adzit: We'll get to why there's an argument to that after this last question.
[44:09] J.J. Gonzalez: Is this the last question? Wait. How is there an argument if you go back and look at the other trivias and the amount you got correct?
[44:17] Olaf Adzit: Because there's... Hold on. You're right. Is this the last question? Are we getting to the last question?
[44:23] J.J. Gonzalez: We are on the final question of our trivia team. I will defend my opinion here in just a second.
[44:33] Olaf Adzit: Okay. Which, honestly, at this point, I feel like you're going to get it correct. But, you know, crazier things have happened.
[44:40] J.J. Gonzalez: This is true. All right. Here we go. Question number 15. Sandra Bullock starred along with Michael Caine in what 2000 film?
[44:54] Olaf Adzit: Here we go. My cocky little laugh. I was in college when this movie came out. They put, like, a casting. Like, you want to be an extra in this movie? Because they shot it in San Antonio.
[45:06] J.J. Gonzalez: Yes, they did. At the Arniston River Theater downtown. One of my theater teachers is one of the people that does the whole makeover scene. Like, she's one of the people that helps make her makeover.
[45:17] Olaf Adzit: So the movie is Miss Congeniality.
[45:19] J.J. Gonzalez: Judges?
[45:22] Olaf Adzit: Correct.
[45:24] J.J. Gonzalez: Miss Congeniality. Yeah, I had a feeling, because as you were talking, I had a flashback of getting a tour of downtown San Antonio the first time I was there and talking all about the movie.
[45:37] Olaf Adzit: Oh, yeah.
[45:38] J.J. Gonzalez: He's from there.
[45:39] Olaf Adzit: Yeah.
[45:40] J.J. Gonzalez: Well, and you threw out 2000.
[45:43] Olaf Adzit: Yeah, I know.
[45:44] J.J. Gonzalez: But, you know, that was more not for you.
[45:47] Olaf Adzit: That helps anchor my answer a little bit as well.
[45:51] J.J. Gonzalez: So I finished 9 and 6.
[45:53] Olaf Adzit: 9 and 6, everybody.
[45:55] J.J. Gonzalez: Yes. Everyone over in this camp is feeling pretty happy. You're right. As far as right answers, wrong answers, you're right. I got more wrong this time than I have in previous iterations of our game.
[46:07] Olaf Adzit: However, there has something to be said about the type of question that you've been asking as we've gone on, the motivation behind you putting these questions together compared to the first trivia.
[46:22] J.J. Gonzalez: The first trivia you didn't know. You put together 15 questions that you weren't sure how they were going to land with me, and they were all…
[46:31] Olaf Adzit: They were good questions.
[46:32] J.J. Gonzalez: They were good questions, but…
[46:33] Olaf Adzit: I would say that, arguably, I have only been asking good questions.
[46:39] J.J. Gonzalez: No, you're right. I would say the difficulty level of the questions you ask now is at a higher level than what you did then, which is great because that's what I want it to be. I don't want you to be underhanding me some softballs every time.
[46:53] Olaf Adzit: I feel like I did today.
[46:55] J.J. Gonzalez: Well, no, you didn't. Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, I was able to get that one. The first question, if I had just seen the movie, then, yeah, okay, I would have gotten Runway, but…
[47:09] Olaf Adzit: Well, you were so, so sure of yourself with Meryl Streep's character in the movie.
[47:16] J.J. Gonzalez: Well, yeah. I think there are general things. I don't know. There's something about, like, again, super fans of that movie would know the answer, and they're going to be like, I can't believe you didn't know it was Runway.
[47:27] Olaf Adzit: Fair.
[47:28] J.J. Gonzalez: Miranda Priestly is such a… You just attach that to her. If you had said Meryl Streep was such and such character, and it wasn't Miranda Priestly, in what movie, I would have been like, well, man, she's got such a huge library of movies. Which character is this? Bridges of Madison County?
[47:46] Olaf Adzit: Lion King, sneaky question.
[47:53] J.J. Gonzalez: That's not a sneaky question. I'll die on the hill on that.
[47:55] Olaf Adzit: Sneaky question.
[47:56] J.J. Gonzalez: Oh, my gosh.
[47:59] Olaf Adzit: Yeah.
[48:00] J.J. Gonzalez: If you Google that question, exactly how I asked it…
[48:04] Olaf Adzit: And I know that's what you did. So I know I'm not going to go, like, try and fact check it. I know you do your… You're very particular and specific about the questions and how they're framed to make sure that the answer is bulletproof.
[48:17] J.J. Gonzalez: So I get it. Honestly, I thought you were going to get it correct.
[48:20] Olaf Adzit: Well, I just wasn't thinking in that… When you first said it, I was like, Chicago. And I was like, oh, wicked. I won't overthink it. And I just immediately went there. And I wasn't thinking animated movies.
[48:33] J.J. Gonzalez: Because Disney, that's 90% of their catalog is musicals.
[48:39] Olaf Adzit: They have music in them.
[48:40] J.J. Gonzalez: Yeah. And one of them is quite popular. One of them is the Lion King.
[48:48] Olaf Adzit: Well, you still came out ahead. So my job is still not done.
[48:53] J.J. Gonzalez: Right. Mission not accomplished. But I got to say, overall…
[48:57] Olaf Adzit: You're getting closer.
[48:58] J.J. Gonzalez: You're getting closer. I'm quite happy. Honestly, I would say that as we've gone along, you've gotten more wrong each time.
[49:08] Olaf Adzit: Because the difficulty of question has gotten harder.
[49:12] J.J. Gonzalez: And again, the first trivia we did, they're all great questions. But I think you even say it. Like, I got to avoid these things.
[49:23] Olaf Adzit: Oh, yeah.
[49:24] J.J. Gonzalez: Because those are like surefire. I can't ask really any Oscar questions. I can't really ask any Tom Hanks questions.
[49:30] Olaf Adzit: I mean, the Oscar questions would have to be super like, what won special effects or visual effects in the year this?
[49:39] J.J. Gonzalez: I mean, like…
[49:40] Olaf Adzit: Okay, good to know.
[49:43] J.J. Gonzalez: I've already started working on the next one.
[49:46] Olaf Adzit: I know you have.
[49:48] J.J. Gonzalez: This victory that you are having right now will be short-lived as you prepare for the next game.
[49:54] Olaf Adzit: We'll celebrate tonight, but tomorrow it's back to work.
[49:57] J.J. Gonzalez: Back to work tomorrow. Back into the trivia minds.
[50:02] Olaf Adzit: I know. This is always good. I love a good trivia, especially because I do. I mean, as much as I enjoy getting questions correct, I also do like learning and going, oh, okay, you know, or being reminded of movies like Bedknobs and Broomsticks, which I have not seen in quite some time.
[50:22] J.J. Gonzalez: Well, everybody, we hope you had fun playing along with us on trivia. Let us know how you did, and if you feel that some of these questions were sneaky or if you feel that they've gotten too hard, let me know as well.
