0:12
from Canada Ryan and Reuben
0:16
[Applause]
0:23
[Applause]
0:29
welcome to the worst of the best no
0:31
you're going to do it differently go
0:33
ahead sir again no what's the matter
0:35
what would I do wrong
0:37
you gave me instructions that is - no
0:39
listen - no I just could say we want to
0:41
start off a little bit you know keep
0:44
going
0:44
well where's the best podcast
0:47
[Music]
0:57
you know the first time you saw this
0:59
this video no no talk Top Gun Oh we'll
1:03
get to that we're gonna get to this so
1:05
if you haven't guessed by the title of a
1:06
show or tunnel this episode we're not my
1:09
favorite Scientologists yeah yeah
1:12
actually we do get the worst of the best
1:14
I'm told us we good okay we are gonna do
1:20
a Scientologist worst of the best
1:22
celebrity centos so obviously the
1:23
premise of the show is that there's a
1:25
list of the best for example Tom
1:26
Cruise's top grossing movies from that
1:29
list we're gonna pick our worst one out
1:32
of the best does it mean we hate it but
1:34
it's definitely the worst that's right
1:36
so what we did is we went to Box Office
1:38
Mojo this is where we strictly went by
1:40
ticket sales this is what the public
1:42
said they went back for more or went
1:45
back in large masses to see this Tom
1:46
Cruise film
1:47
this isn't ratings on Rotten Tomatoes
1:49
we've done it we've done that many
1:50
different ways but we're doing this way
1:52
box office sales I think for actors of
1:54
Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise when we do
1:55
these I think it when it comes down I
1:57
think has to be the public's choice
1:58
absolutely we're also doing the Mission
2:02
Impossible for example as one movie yes
2:04
okay we want to have some variety
2:05
there is one film in the top films top
2:08
10 films from Tom Cruise that room and I
2:10
can't discuss good Ruben has not seen
2:13
War of the Worlds I can't I can't
2:15
believe you haven't seen this booth I
2:16
got some news for you brother I did see
2:19
it when he asked me I was not sure if I
2:21
did okay I have to watch a trailer and
2:23
then you'd say okay well why don't we
2:24
substitute it with Days of Thunder we
2:26
gonna throw days of fun so let's let's
2:27
start the beginning let's just start
2:28
them all right let's do it sir from
2:31
least amount of ticket sales to the
2:33
greatest will do in that order
2:35
if you want to fall on you don't box
2:36
office mojo but if you just want to
2:38
listen listen
2:39
so here we go and this is adjusted
2:40
adjusted for inflation I think this is
2:42
important because it would tell you it
2:44
had this movie been really state owes
2:46
you the ticket sales it tells you how
2:48
many people will have really gone to the
2:49
same compared to 20 years ago when I
2:51
first started going it was dime for the
2:54
the ticket and a nickel for the pepper
2:55
okay I think you're channeling your
2:57
grandfather there
2:58
Days of Thunder Truman Days of Thunder
3:00
Tom Cruise in a race car wants to say
3:02
first of all now have you never done
3:03
this have you never done this room
3:04
before we talk about each thing give a
3:06
little bit of feelings well give away
3:07
our answer we talk about how we feel
3:09
first of all this whole Kidman that was
3:15
my introduction tour yes curly-haired
3:17
curly-haired Nicole Robert Duvall was in
3:19
it Robert of all our research on all
3:22
these movies would be very minimal
3:23
because this shows you know it's not a
3:24
very long one the worse the best doesn't
3:26
drag much past half an hour so we don't
3:29
have to tell the audience these Thunder
3:30
race car driving Tom Cruise fantastic
3:33
this is berrin entertainment tonight was
3:35
like part of like my watching okay I
3:37
watched watchin but tonight I remember
3:40
they had the segment of the person who
3:42
did the logo for it you know like with a
3:44
brush and that's her stuff and wow this
3:47
is really important stuff because when I
3:49
was a kid I can't find her camera it was
3:50
like a real news story does that make
3:52
sense sure I don't know the Thunder
3:54
so Days of Thunder had it been released
3:57
today would make worldwide gross of a
3:59
181 million dollars
4:01
not too shabby for is not as shabby but
4:03
what number is this though well this is
4:05
16 of his movies this is number 16 this
4:07
guy has made a lot of money 16 late yeah
4:09
that's a really great oh and I should
4:12
make this clear this is the US only this
4:14
is not worldwide box little babies this
4:16
include China no there's a does this
4:19
does not include China this does not
4:21
include the worldwide gross so this is
4:23
impressed these are all US domestic
4:25
inflated gross
4:26
for today's ticket prices it would make
4:28
a hundred and eighty 1 million in the
4:29
states alone he's in for a scar movie
4:32
Tom Cruise star power is very strong my
4:34
friends risky business this is where he
4:37
sings that song does it do you remember
4:39
this Reuben risky business
4:41
tom is young he's dancing in his socks
4:44
his underwear hairless legs hairless
4:47
legs he's drinking some wine in a
4:49
quesadilla
4:50
he's home alone puts in a tape crowds
4:53
cheering the course
4:54
[Music]
5:07
so that's a great dance sequence is Tom
5:10
rammer of the house singing with a
5:12
candlestick er I guess or something like
5:14
that like how is dress shirt that he's
5:16
wearing it's just low enough yeah versus
5:19
Frank and beans there'd be the
5:20
awkwardness you know what I mean yeah
5:24
so this was the first time Tom Cruise
5:26
went nuts on the couch he dances with
5:28
the couch area Mara that scene so risky
5:30
business do you remember much about this
5:31
movie I thought my friend Josh Lewis as
5:33
he'll set a sleepover and you're
5:35
watching it okay it's kind of hard to
5:37
not enjoy Tom Cruise I think when it
5:39
comes down to this it's hard to not
5:41
enjoy a good time a Tom Cruise movie
5:43
he's a Chris matica yeah he's this guy
5:45
works his butt off let me just say this
5:47
Tom Cruise I like a lot I had like a lot
5:49
I've seen every one of his movies I
5:50
think I've literally have seen everyone
5:51
and I haven't you need to change that by
5:55
15 belfry what
5:57
well now it's kind of in tarnished with
5:58
the director Bryan Singer hey I don't
6:00
know what happened Oh
6:02
Bryan Singer molested people he's one of
6:05
the yeah I know but don't anyways yeah
6:08
that means said Tom Cruise even when
6:11
they even if the movies not that great
6:13
he puts it on the table yeah he's never
6:15
he's never boring
6:17
let me fun like if you could say hey Tom
6:19
I got an idea for a movie
6:20
my budget zero I got like my iphone
6:23
camera let's do it he would bring it
6:25
he'd bring it I like Tom Cruise I know
6:27
his beliefs weird told you where do a
6:30
whole episode on the worst of the best
6:31
celebrities
6:32
we're doing that episode I don't care
6:33
okay movies I don't want you for
6:37
anything else I don't care
6:39
boss found me life I don't care you know
6:41
I mean the extent of just saying
6:42
Scientology you've been exposed to do
6:45
some damage to people and I just don't
6:47
sure I don't know what he and anyways
6:49
that's a whole whole other smorgasbord
6:52
of issues that I can't I barely know
6:54
what I'm gonna have for breakfast let
6:55
alone to describe analyst life but as an
6:58
actor love it and ECM everyone that's
7:01
worked them on the acting jobs they all
7:03
love low-level he's never had a scandal
7:06
and I'm aware of or impede anybody off
7:08
or had people pay people off like some
7:10
of the beautiful
7:11
here's a movie that has never been made
7:12
that almost I made which bugs me to this
7:14
day Tom Cruise Ben Stiller they were
7:18
gonna do the hearty voice oh yes and Tom
7:21
Cruise is a great community guy you know
7:22
Tropic Thunder yeah I mean I may be that
7:25
maybe that's what they did instead oh
7:27
yeah they should really revisit that I
7:30
forgot what the remember me can be
7:32
depressed a little bit yeah okay well
7:34
stuff smoothie maybe we'll double buoy
7:35
your spirits boy your spirits mulitply
7:39
so now we've got the mission of possible
7:40
movies collectively we'll just stay here
7:42
Mission Possible three six four five
7:48
they're all in the top 15 okay then one
7:54
the one that just came out two already
7:55
made 191 million in the States alone
7:57
just in the States
7:58
it's made money overs are chicken movie
8:01
it's such an incredible movie I love
8:05
fallout it still could be the worst out
8:07
of his best still can be the words
8:11
became spoilers it's better than Days of
8:14
Thunder it's better than risky business
8:16
you're telling me mission impossible the
8:18
old franchise is better than the risky
8:19
business
8:20
it's an incredible front it's a weird
8:21
franchise that gets Benton four five and
8:23
six alone those three should be their
8:25
own trilogy of just amazing for me just
8:27
get better at each one the first you
8:29
look really bad I think in my opinion
8:31
yeah we get that much better yes yeah
8:33
they've made quick math here 600 million
8:41
851 billion about one and a half billion
8:44
dollars ribbon in the states alone but
8:47
my franchise that's just the state's
8:48
money amazing so good for good for Tom
8:51
mr. possible well you haven't seen part
8:53
six follow you're doing yourself a
8:55
disservice and part five five and six
8:57
are actually the part six is a direct
8:59
sequel like a literal direct sequel to
9:01
par 5 so watch treat yourself watch
9:03
rogue nation the go see you fall out
9:04
because you will not disappoint
9:05
okay mama see doesn't matter pick for
9:08
worse that's pretty obviously I don't
9:09
know already report you seen this of
9:12
course yeah
9:13
so he's working a few times with Steven
9:16
Spielberg this is the first one on this
9:17
list where he's worked with Spielberg so
9:19
yeah 210 million the state's
9:21
pretty good I enjoyed this movie
9:25
yeah boy this could be tough interview
9:27
the vampire I saw this in the theaters
9:28
this is with obviously Bradley Bradley
9:33
pick up a pit
9:34
Bradley Cooper pit and Tom Cruise
9:36
playing vampires this movie is really
9:39
lambaste blasted by critics it was a
9:41
tend to be an actual franchise when this
9:43
was made really oh it's based on a
9:45
French and it was lambasted yeah but I
9:47
think I'm he's not work right am i well
9:49
I think I said it were weird that
9:51
lambaste lambaste it was not Harold Lee
9:54
well but critics I don't think I think
9:56
someone will take to hate I liked it I
9:59
did it kind of pushed the envelope for
10:01
my sensitivities back in 94 I will admit
10:03
not to say that I'm more jaded 24 years
10:06
later but I saw us moving the theaters
10:08
Kirsten Dunst debut role playing a baby
10:10
vampire which is pretty cool
10:12
Brad Pitt and Tom Cruise the other I
10:13
think we forget it's kind of cool to
10:15
have those two guys together acting in
10:16
the movie together but I mean it's just
10:17
me lambaste to beat or whip severely
10:20
yeah but usually is used in the past
10:23
tense
10:24
Christian Slater played the interviewer
10:26
by the way he's on the show called mr.
10:29
robot and apparently does very well in
10:31
it and it's very well received sure I
10:32
can check that out seems like I'm right
10:34
yeah and I like to see it for him
10:36
because I'd like Christian Slater pump
10:37
up the volume cuffs
10:39
yeah to true romance true man's justice
10:43
at their movie he got criticized for
10:45
being kind of a Jack Nicholson ripoff
10:47
the way he spoke other people are lazy
10:49
in their reporting sure he's a good
10:51
actor he is a good actor and he's like I
10:53
said I think he's doing well in that in
10:55
that series
10:55
okay check out mr. robot yeah they do be
10:57
the vampire I saw in the theaters who
10:59
had some troubling scenes they don't
11:02
have being a vampire movie but it was
11:03
well done I'd like to seeing Tom Cruise
11:05
actually kind of playing not an
11:07
altruistic good guy he was a vampire it
11:09
was very evil they see the acting chops
11:13
[Music]
11:15
153 helped you know adjusted
11:19
yeah 314 million years of this movie I
11:22
saw that six times in the theater so
11:24
you're one of the reasons why it's three
11:25
four oh no no but does that work for the
11:27
new theaters the time I saw I start up
11:29
free yeah but people like me they really
11:32
like one of my favorite scenes in there
11:35
is when he's in his car
11:37
things are buckling
11:39
he's gotta turn on the music to find
11:40
that right song that fits the moment I
11:44
forget what song comes on but it's not
11:46
it you know what you know the scene yeah
11:52
so Tom just signs the contract with the
11:55
hostess had Jerry O'Connell's character
11:57
yeah close his name in the movie I
11:59
forget gets the the contract things are
12:01
going good gets this car the sun shining
12:05
i think the stones come on
12:06
it's the stones plane and he doesn't
12:08
know how to sing along with him I think
12:09
he's having a hard time singing the
12:11
songs alright yeah
12:12
[Music]
12:13
[Applause]
12:14
[Music]
12:23
so he's trying to find a song he's so
12:25
excited he was gonna have those songs
12:28
get like that that's the moment very
12:30
handsome her isn't it yeah people have
12:31
noticed that about him she he's trying
12:37
so hard like to get a deep song all
12:39
right I'll keep playing
12:43
[Music]
13:05
just let's watch that scene there
13:08
it's amazing hey he's a great I tell you
13:10
he's a great actor full of energy you
13:12

13:13
I didn't hear us afford during that
13:15
scene he couldn't he's not a good enough
13:18
actor to do it no he's not but Tom Hanks
13:20

yeah everyone talks about the scene of
13:47
course the end we all loved the scene
13:49
where it gets Jack Nicholson's character
13:50
to announce the truth I'll say what I
13:52

16:46
what is not a lot of immune deficiency
