Movie of the Year 2014 - The GameOverGreggy Show Ep. 59 (Pt. 3)

[@indeimaus]

Who made that intro, it's fantastic.

[@23madberty]

Pandamusk

[@katsup_07]

for sure. the mermaid part is best

[@sdarenberg90]

chertsy y that Ariel from lil mermaid.... know your Disney princesses fool!

[@katsup_07]

Oh her name is Arnold? Okay, well that part when he's with Arnold is really funny

[@sdarenberg90]

chertsy y are you an idiot? It clearly says Ariel.

[@isultansultangaliev5852]

My favourite movie of this year is The Grand Budapest Hotel, such a great movie. Wes Anderson is amazing, doubt he will get an oscar though.

[@zantam321]

Hated those bullshit aspect ratios though.

[@isultansultangaliev5852]

zantam321 What do you mean?

[@zantam321]

Changes between 3 aspect ratios depending on the time period. Too many black bars and it made it really ugly and kind of ruined it for me.

[@isultansultangaliev5852]

zantam321 Oh, I actually liked it. Made the time periods differ.

[@zantam321]

iSultan Sultangaliev Except that the majority of the movie takes place in square framing which is terrible imo.

[@TauCetiAurora]

"THIS MAN...KNOWS...CONTACT! CONTACT! CONTACT! CONTACT!" Hilarious. Also, how I feel whenever someone mentions Contact.

[@WezBrayhotmail]

No one trolls Greg better than Colin. It never gets old.

[@TonyScimeca]

huge fan of these mics! thanks for moving back

[@BeauAgrawal]

Way better sound quality

[@jordanclark1993]

I don't know why Gone Girl took Nick by surprise. He's a film buff (or would like to think so), so he should know that a Fincher film would be great and something to be anticipated. Also Gillian Flynn was the only writer on the script. Not one of. Also Nick's problems with Interstellar are so silly. Cooper was an astronaut and a pilot for many years. What did he do in space that was so unbelievable that he couldn't have done? Nick is quite a movie snob though so I'm not surprised he has problems with well-received films.

[@_avoid]

Agreed. All film fans should know that Fincher never misses. (not counting Alien3 as that was out of his control)

[@Matthew-cm1ph]

1) Interstellar 2) Boyhood 3) Foxcatcher 4) Theory of Everything 5) Birdman 6) Gone Girl 7) Inherent Vice 8) Nightcrawler 9)The Grand Budapest Hotel 10) Whiplash

[@Blindconcept]

You guys are so fun to watch and listen to. Keep up the awesome work.

[@grundelrumble141]

Still can't get over the new intro its amazing.

[@_avoid]

1. Guardians of the Galaxy 2. The Grand Budapest Hotel 3. Gone Girl

[@bazf14]

Grand Budapest Hotel was absolutely fantastic! You need to see it Greg!

[@katsup_07]

tweeter from Varsity Blues is in the Boiler Room too. that movie's amazing

[@Uchenna18]

Love it between 21:30-21:50 greg refused to take TDKR bait loooool

[@barcundia]

Without seeing Birdman yet, I choose The Grand Budapest Hotel as my movie of 2014. After the first 5 minutes, I was completely hooked, and enjoyed every second of that roller coaster of emotions. Not a fan of horror films, but I really liked The Babadook.

[@BBR1394]

The best film of 2014 for me was The Grand Budapest. So refreshing, zany, eccentric, funny, and just plain entertaining. Boyhood, Whiplash, Guardians of the Galaxy, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Edge of Tomorrow, Gone Girl, Interstellar, How to Train Your Dragon 2, The LEGO Movie, Captain America, X-Men, and Nightcrawler, among other films, were absolutely fantastic. Shoutout to The Babadook, Godzilla, Foxcatcher, and The Raid 2 for being really good as well. *Haven't seen Birdman or Selma yet, but I'm hoping to watch them before Oscar night. 😃

[@nicc8268]

The Signal is an underrated sci fi film that I really enjoyed this year.

[@22KingWizard]

I have not seen Gone Girl, but Walk among Tombstones, Fury and The Judge I thought were very well done.

[@InputOne]

Birdman was my favorite movie of 2014. It is just incredible in every way; incredible in direction, cinematography, music, acting... every thing. Nightcrawler was really good, Gyllenhaal is the highlight of that movie. Best acting of the year, at least I think so. Gone Girl was also awesome. I'll never forget unravelling the story along with Ben Affleck's character. The twists were awesome. I really need to see Grand Budapest Hotel. I've heard nothing but great things.

[@GhostSixx]

My top 3: Birdman or (The Unexpected Virtue of Ignorance) Boyhood Inherent Vice* *I watched it once and thought it was fine. Watched again and holy hell, fantastic. PTA remains a master.

[@Paul4AllSeasons]

you guys gotta start seeing more movies in theaters

[@lawleejohn]

I am under the impression that when Leonardo blew off explaining how the firm was making its illegal gains in Wolf of Wall Street, it was a wink to Boiler Room where the scam was revealed. Both movies were based on the same source material (Jordan Belfort, Stratton Oakmont), just told from a different perspective.

[@StevenSantanaF]

Grand Budapest is the best movie of 2014 easily. It was released limited in March but I saw it three times in theaters.

[@FunkyTrigger]

Funny story about that Wolf of Wall Street; putting Coke in the woman's butt scene... I worked at a cinema at the time and the manager responsible for the digital projection schedule made a mistake and basically that film came on in a screen that was scheduled to be Frozen. Let's just say there were a lot of unhappy parents.

[@CPUAlexis]

I think I can speak for thousands of other best friends when I say that y'all should do a play through of Final Fantasy VII.

[@Svhennitis]

Colin you are correct. Boiler Room is based on the same story as The Wolf of Wall Street.

[@TheGreatOne313]

I haven't watched any of the Oscars one because they didn't come to a theater near me but the ones i'd watch it'd include Edge of Tomorrow, Apes, Guardians of the Galaxy, Lego Movie, Boyhood, Raid 2, and X-men

[@diegopachon8051]

My ranking: 1. Birdman 2. Gone Girl 3. Nightcrawler 4. Whiplash 5. Big Hero 6 6. Interestelar 7. The Imitation Game 8. The Grand Budapest Hotel 9. The Lego Movie 10. How to Train Your Dragon 2 11. Edge of Tomorrow 12. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes 13. X-Men: Days of Future Past 14. Captain America: The Winter Soldier 15. Guardians of the Galaxy 16. 22 Jump Street 17. The Book of Life 18. A Most Violent Year 19. Boyhood 20. Wild 21. The Drop 22. John Wick 23. The Theory of Everything 24. American Sniper Dishonorable mention to Foxcatcher for worst film

[@diegopachon8051]

I almost forgot The Interview, that's the worst movie of the year. Foxcatcher is the second one. I still have to see Inherent Vice and Selma. And Greg, Nolan doesn't have a single bad film on his own! My top from him is: 1. TDK 2. Inception 3. Memento 4. Batman Begins 5. Interstellar 6. The Prestige 7. Following 8. Insomnia 9. TDKR All of his films are at least an 8/10, all of them.

[@BeauAgrawal]

why didnt u guys like foxcatcher?

[@APAL880]

dude. i have a lot of respect for u because that is a huge list. ive seen like 3 of those and i watch a lot of movies.

[@MrTelboy]

my favourite movies of 2014 Nightcrawler (Gyllenhall should have been nominated for the Oscars) Captain America Winter Solider Edge of Tomorrow / Live Die Repeat

[@MrJevans05]

Please do more movie discussions and recommendations. Such a good topic.

[@dooshbag612]

My favorite movie this year was either Nightcrawler or Gone Girl.

[@BeauAgrawal]

I really liked Whiplash

[@drewb242]

YES you mentioned snowpiercer everybody needs to see that movie.

[@HoodedDude]

Yes, Memento is a Nolan film and it's great.

[@TrophyReacts]

What mics do you guys use? We're looking into starting up a podcast one day so just curious? And you should definitely get Troy on again one day, agreed that he's so damn interesting ha :)

[@InputOne]

They look like Audio-Technica AT2020s.

[@torres9sos]

You guys should do 5 topics every show, that way Nick can always do his own topic, and if you don't have a guest the 5th is from the community.

[@jollybrah]

My fav movie of the year was Captain America: The Winter Soldier! Then Guardians, Then Gone Girl!!

[@mushydogleish95]

You guys need to watch more movies, do yourself a favour and find a way to watch Birdman, Whiplash and Boyhood.

[@AJFloresss]

I 2nd this. I'm disappointed that they didn't mention at least one of these.

[@imagorilla95]

I third this

[@maxsilbert]

I fourth this, whatever that means.

[@XDEADheadEDX]

Birdman is garbage

[@HsFBoJaNgLeS]

Birdman was pretty meh tbh. It put me to sleep.

[@alexspogonz]

Love the show guys keep it up!👍

[@the_grimby1722]

Dicaprio is a great actor. Colin, if you have not seen "The Departed", do it. So damn good.

[@TheJoelseph6]

Awesome year for movies, My favorites were Boyhood, Guardians, Cap 2, Interstellar, Godzilla, and Gone girl

[@TheKennyboy92]

Nick my man, I love Brick one of my favourite indie's of the decade so good

[@somakc]

Channing Tatum was in a movie about 10 years ago called A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints and it had Shia LaBeouf, Chazz Palminteri as his dad, Rosario Dawson and Robert Downey Jr and it was very good. Y'all should check that movie out. Brick was pretty good and Boiler Room was excellent.

[@hectormeneses9930]

The moment Tim said "spoilers" I stopped the video. I want to see Gone Girl this Friday...

[@airyyk]

my favorites of the year, I recommend... 1. Enemy 2. The Guest 3. Whiplash

[@BeauAgrawal]

Some good ones that flew under the radar

[@TheNickinator96]

I wish you guys did some sort of Spoilercast because keeping this discussion spoiler-free really inhibits a proper discussion of these films.

[@penguindude24]

I didn't see enough movies last year, but Godzilla and Guardians were great. Looking forward to Cinderella, Bond, Star Wars, Fast 7, and Avengers. It'll be a good year for film.

[@slicer1419]

14:35 LMAO

[@durgebh9487]

Just watched The Grand Budapest Hotel. Agree wholeheartedly with Nick. The movie is a masterpiece of storytelling.

[@BeauAgrawal]

its pretty great

[@MSantosMusic]

I would say Boyhood because there has never been a film like it before, but Birdman was so fucking good. It's between both of those films.

[@ineedtoppp]

I would like to hear Colin's thoughts on There Will Be Blood. His love of history could be an interesting perspective on what I consider to be a fantastic movie.

[@tmartdw]

WTF DID GREG DO AT 14:35?!?!?!?!? MY GOD LAWLZ

[@Daddy0os]

Memento is Christopher Nolan's best movie, hands down.

[@IamEchelon]

Umm let my man know the reason why Boiler Room and Wolf of Wall Street are similar is because they're both based off the same events

[@JZ3987]

Dude greg just interrupts everyone else constantly

[@PieBlaCon]

Leonardo Dicaprio isn't in the same class as Daniel Day Lewis. He was totally out of his element in Gangs of New York. Completely outmatched.

[@Supuhfuzz]

You HAVE to watch dallas buyers club, greg. My brother got me to sit down and watch a movie (something I hate doing) and it was amazing. Went as the main character for character day at school a few months ago.

[@hectormeneses9930]

So who made that awesome intro?

[@vegardlangnes5835]

The best movie I saw this year was The Immitation Game. It was really good. Everyone have to watch this

[@BiggCMan]

Can anyone tell me if there are spoilers for the movies they talk about? Most specifically Gone Girl and Interstellar, but more or less all of them.

[@YoooEric]

You're good! No spoilers for either of those movies! Thankfully, they didn't spoil anything for any movie actually.

[@dieterhoeller4782]

I'd like to see a show with Nick where he talks about movies.

[@CPUAlexis]

Ruby Sparks is so fucking good. I love that movie.

[@elliotrogers7118]

My top 5 of 2014. 1. Guardians of the Galaxy 2. Interstellar 3. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes 4. Captain America 2: Winter Soldier 5. Edge of Tomorrow

[@kgerfilms]

Coherence is my movie of the year.

[@dazyawhina]

I'm getting confused...so they have Colin and Greg live everyday on twitch and this podcast every week on KZbin and iTunes?

[@SnowyTaco]

Aside from Nick because I know he watches a lot of movies, everyone's favorite movies is not as credible of choices.

[@BeauAgrawal]

Nick really doesn't know that much about movies

[@tylermitchell6191]

"Wolf of Wall Street is technically a 2014 movie." - Colin Moriarty No. No, it really isn't.

[@zebrachicken]

Boiler Room is based on the same guy that Wolf of Wallstreet is!

[@GamerGuy03281997]

Whiplash, Birdman and Gone Girl were my top 3

[@tissot233]

It's shame Colin didn't see Interstellar in IMAX. That film is made for the big screen.

[@alexmassey5908]

1) For your consideration: www.tmz.com/2014/12/30/sony-pictures-studios-hack-inside-the-interview-north-korea/ 2) I feel your pain, Moriarty; I couldn't get my wife to watch a documentary if it was about her favorite thing ever.

[@DoggoUpjet]

greg needs a bread lol

[@ChadQuallo]

i havent seen Budapest, so for me its between Whiplash and Nightcrawler.

[@Thatpatrickdude]

Boiler Room is the shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit. That's when I fell in love with Giovanni Ribisi.

[@Daddy0os]

Selma movie of the year hands down get at me

[@BeauAgrawal]

disagreed

[@randomness3876]

Nightcrawler, Birdman, Gone Girl, Boyhood

[@projectnatal11]

Memento is a Nolan movie. And in my opinion it's his best one. So amazing!

[@TheeVande]

How tall is greg?

[@MrSaLVideos]

DotPotA,GotG,Days of Future Past,Captain America:The Winter Soldier,Malificent and Lucy...All Great movies.

[@SleeplessSpecter]

That's a great list..If you're 12.

[@MrSaLVideos]

JRDELM8R lol i am 21yrs old...anyway i think it because i was off movies for 4yrs until last year or i think they are just fantastic movies.

[@SleeplessSpecter]

Basit Saliuy I feel ya.

[@brandonr4739]

I watch maybe 1 movie per month... what is DotPotA and GotG?

[@brandonr4739]

Basit Saliuy Ok thanks. I def want to see DotPotA

[@superjackass]

i thought the best one was night crawler or whiplash, outside of super hero movies

[@Daddy0os]

Also, The Double is Jesse Eisenburg's best acting job so far in my opinion. Watch that shit on Netflix, it's crazy.

[@BeauAgrawal]

agreed

[@omichron420]

My favorite movie for 2014 is Tremors. And 2013 and so forth.

[@G0oFz]

apparently the best films of 2014 came out way before 2014 even happened... seriously tho, ya'll got some catching up to do.

[@cameronevo]

love this show..

[@ODSTSolider]

Gone Girl, Boyhood, Nightcrawller, Coherence, Cap America 2, Whiplash, i Origins, Guardians of the Galaxy, X-Men DoFP, and fuck you I enjoyed The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (That movie made me smile so much, despite it's issues)

[@Talal_111]

Spice World? lol Tim is a 90's kid! love this episode, you guys should talk more about movies

[@BeauAgrawal]

not really, they dont know pretty much anything about movies

[@Talal_111]

Beau Agrawal I did't say it's educational, but it 's fun

[@phichau90]

The judge was a brilliant movie

[@kuunami]

I agree with Nick about the Gone Girl ending It was just to implausible to me. The rest of the movie was fantastic though.

[@rastazorastra1772]

Tim Gettys: To answer your question about Gone Girl ending - "what would you rather?". In the easiest way possible: THE LEGIT ENDING of the book Gone Girl in which this is adapted from. Written by the same author. Gillian Flynn changed the film ending so readers of her books wouldn't feel like they knew what would happen . She changed it up so nobody knew. The book ending is ALOT better and it would of made the movie ALOT better to the point of Oscar contention. Proves once again. Books > Adapted Movie. So far only 2 things to come close to challenge that philosophy is Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones.... and maybe. Maybe it's arguable that Watchmen was on par with Watchmen novel.

[@BeauAgrawal]

dont totally agree with that concept, but the book ending was definitely better

[@RicoSeattle]

What happened in the book ending? What did they change?

[@CLunz17]

The graphic novel watchmen is a lot better than the movie and if you think its arguably on par you need to reread the book. Rita Hayworth and Shawshank redemption was the novella the shawshank redemption was based on and that's the one book I've read where the movie is better. The novel had complicated backstory on how Andy got the money and tommy just left the prison. Also I think to kill a mockingbird is on par with book mainly due to Gregory Peck's amazing performance

[@furdiebant]

The Oscars are incredibly frustrating because to win your film needs to be feel-good or teach an important historical lesson. Hence tons of snubs in my eyes, most recently Di Caprio for Wolf of Wall Street

[@the_grimby1722]

Lucky for me, my wife hates chick flicks.

[@Baytuh]

John Wick

[@MegaGamer1006]

Birdman :D

[@tejasranger]

Lol at this point I think Colin is trolling about Dark Knight Rises

[@themanager664]

You think..?

[@jordanclark1993]

I really do think he likes it, but he's obviously overdoing it to get on Greg's nerves.

[@_avoid]

He legitimately likes it, as all sane people do.

[@DamnFineCupOfCoffee]

Dat intro

[@WhoaNellyJake]

I didn't think Guardians of the Galaxy was Bad, but I didn't think it was good, either.

[@Ferrer405]

Boyhood is the best film of last year, my other two favorites are Edge of Tomorrow and How to Train your Dragon 2.

[@josephdelvecchio858]

Colin! I know you dig drumming. Check out Whiplash!!!! Incredible film!

[@R4Z3RHD]

X-Men or Captain America 2

[@arcadematt]

Now knowing that Colin used to play drums, check out Whiplash. Amazing, intense film! My vote for best 2014 movie. J.K. Simmons is this years Matthew McConaughey.

[@Cusack187]

Colin: Daniel Day-Lewis is the greatest actor of our time. Leo is a good pick though.

[@ZekeFreek]

Troy Baker is a goddamn traitor. He abandoned everything that made his career possible as soon as the AAA paychecks came in.
