‘Days of Thunder’ With Bill Simmons, Chris Ryan, and Kyle Brandt

I'm a big fan. To me, Days of Thunder is the movie Grand Prix and Le Mans should have been. Sure, it had a big budget, big stars, and a big director in Tony Scott, but it had the fun of those early AIP movies. I just don't think it works if you take the whole thing too seriously. He also loves Tony Scott, we should mention.

Yeah, I mean, Bob Towne probably was thinking about this like the way, like to me, without limits, the other, the Prefontaine movie with Billy Crudup. That's the version of Days of Thunder. Bob Towne probably had this head, but that's not what is on the screen. That's not what Tony and Don were thinking. No, that's not what they're thinking. All right, categories. I'm swerving with you guys.

We're due for a rowdy in sports. Yeah. We are. I guess Abdul Carter is a pretty good name, but Mason Graham in the NFL draft right now, if Mason Graham's name was Rowdy and he was like, it's Rowdy Graham, the Michigan defensive tackle, I'd be like, Jesus, that guy's got to go first.

Well, another category. This is a brand new category, CR. Okay. 376 movies. I think it's a decent ad. You're still surprising me. The Dr. Claire Lewicki Award for Worst Character Name. Why is her name Dr. Claire Lewicki? She's a fucking redhead from Australia.
