I think they do. Actually, I have one coming out. Here we go. This month. Here we go. Invited on Amazon. Perfect. Which is a, which is like an old school. R-rated. Fantastic movie. Reese Witherspoon and I are, we have two competing weddings booked at a destination. Location. And we have to kind of Duke it out to see who's going to be the wedding that gets to take place. But yeah,
yeah i i it's an interesting time i think people are making it i just i don't know why they're not kind of going to the theaters to see them and i think we have i think we kind of have so many options now that a lot of people would you know would rather go oh i'll just i'll just catch that at home yeah there's nothing like going to the theater though man I know.
When you sit and watch a comedy with an audience, you're reminded as to how much more fun it is.
I'm trying to get that back.
Oh, God.
Yeah. You know what? I'm going to pass on that because I'm afraid you guys will steal it. No, no. We want to do something like that. No, I don't trust you guys. I don't trust you. No, I don't know. I'm trying to think if there's anything. It's funny. Ideas usually pop into my head in the most random way. But... But no, I don't have an exciting answer to that. Sorry.
Yeah.
I think you just get a sense of something that, you know, if it's an idea that you can kind of spit out in a sentence.
Then it's got a good chance. You know, it's like, You know, I remember when we were, we were pitching Anchorman, which at the time we got rejected. I think we got like rejected 20 different times from various studios. It just blows my mind. Like no one could kind of wrap their hand around, head around an ensemble comedy show. That took place in a newsroom. They kept hearing the news part.
And we're like, no, no, no. It's going to be, you know, Austin Powers wasn't about us. Wasn't about the spy game. It was about a really funny character. Right. Our characters are gonna be funny. And then I remember, I remember thinking, gosh, this is so hard to get off the ground. We should maybe pick a topic that everyone's talking about. And at that time, NASCAR was at its height.
And I was like, for instance, what if I'm just me as a NASCAR driver and we sold that in like two seconds?
Yeah. I don't know. I don't know if there's an exact formula for it, but it's just something that I think grabs the people who have to pay for it.
I mean, one of my welcome to Hollywood moments was getting to be the first – the first member of a brand new cast on Saturday night live. And I got to say the first, the first lines of our, our opening show. And I'm sitting there and they're counting down the show and I'm looking out. That's crazy. My folks are in the audience and friends and family. And I'm like, I can't believe I'm here.
And I'm about to, I'm about to say whatever line, which is, a little trivia here. I mess up my line. The first time I speak on camera on the show, I flub it.
And I felt, and you know, Travis, you know how you do the full dress rehearsal. And then by the time you do the live show, you're like piece of cake.
I got it. Yeah. But all, and so I did the dress rehearsal. I was like, this is going to be great, but I'm sitting there in the chair and the enormity of the moment hits me. And I start to get a little bit emotional thinking about, wow, this is the thing I've always dreamed about. And then it was like five seconds. And then I had to do my line. I was like, and I was like, and Lauren came back.
He's like, are you okay? I'm like, I'm fine. I'm fine. I just, I don't know what happened. Yeah. It was incredibly uplifting and incredibly grounding all at the same time. It was like, don't ever take anything for granted, and yet I can't believe I'm here. There you go.
You guys are going to say, You're My Boy Blue. Yeah!
You're going to go old school. I love them. Or you might say milk is a bad choice. I don't know.
milk was a bad choice by the way i improvised that because i was literally trying to tell the director in that moment like why did you give me a carton of milk as we're shooting in la on like a 98 degree day and i literally was like milk was a bad choice because i'm like i'm having to drink hot milk in this scene that's the worst the fucking worst you were spot on with that one
