For Glen in particular I am elated that his movie is finally going to open up the eyes of directors in Hollywood.I still can’t believe this guy hasn’t been taken more seriously as an actor.He’s way more talented and gifted than most people even realize-not to mention he seems to have rad taste in music☠️….Proud of the sunny crew from top to bottom for always doing it their way and fuck whoever doesn’t get it.Good luck on both films guys and let’s get rob going on a screenplay or something…would love to see some of his darker comedic leanings brought to life some how…Meg is the greatest btw!

i’ve have ALWAYS thought that Glenn would crush it if they ever remade American Psycho…he’s such an underrated actor

[@mrmusickhimself]

Or a character that worships Patrick and tries to emulate him in 2000 era New York, but then that would destroy the open ending that the previous film had, I just want to see Glenn play a narcissistic sociopath killer.

[@travistuckerSB]

From Peter Debruge at Variety: “Like a shark in the kiddie pool, Howerton delivers the kind of performance that can make a career, or force audiences to totally reconsider an actor’s potential.” Well earned Glenn - so glad you’re getting the recognition you deserve. Can’t wait to see not just this film but the roles this is going to open up for you.

[@miken8876]

It’s honestly fucking heartbreaking for me to see the public reception of fools paradise. I haven’t seen it, but the fact that he worked on it for ten years and clearly has so much passion for it and care for his project makes it a crushing blow to see the reviews and stuff. I really hope Charlie uses that as inspiration and a lesson in film making, rather than making him want to give up. I know if that happened to me I would be crushed and give up, but seeing how hard these 3 guys have worked on what they love, I think Charlie has more heart than I do to get up and keep trying

[@philiptandy8104]

Breaks my heart too 😥 Havent seen it yet but will, its on Prime now for purchase. I dont trust review critics, they ALWAYS rate something the exact opposite of how I feel

[@Fogdiver69]

I know I'm just a guy and my opinion doesn't matter at all. I don't expect Charlie will ever see this comment, but in the off chance that he does, I hope he knows the fans love him no matter what. It also breaks my heart to see the reaction the movie is getting too, but as you said I hope that it drives him further. I honestly consider him a modern comedic genius. To me, the worst possible result of this movie flopping commercially would be him not getting back on the horse and trying again. Don't give up, Charlie, please keep going. I know you have a legendary movie in you somewhere.

[@meu02136]

It’s really bad though, doesn’t work at all as a comedy. What makes it worse is blackberry is incredible and Glenn is amazing in it.

[@streetlifeofzackandcody]

I didn't really get the point of Fool's Paradise until I watched this episode of the podcast. If the whole point was finding that one little bond/community between Charlie's character and Ken Jeong's character, that is a good plot, but it didn't come across in the movie and the ending just felt so random. The movie as a whole felt like a bunch of bits to me and didn't really connect.

I will never laugh harder than an interview with Ken when he talks about writing a sincere note to Harmon about being an actor and not a clown and everything he put in the email Harmon wrote into a scene about no one taking Chang seriously(bear down for midterms).

45:00 Rob has such a good point about Charlie’s voice being so iconic, it truly was brave of him to be silent in a film. And I’m so glad Glenn got to play this role! Maybe I’m biased because of Dennis, but he is a masterclass in facial expressions of a cold, enraged man. I wasn’t interested in Blackberry until I saw these clips of Glenn’s performance.

When Glen talked about having the confidence to swing big in Blackberry, because if he failed he always had Sunny to fall back on, immediately reminded me of the Chrissy Orlando story. Nice to see Charlie recognize it as well.

This might just be my favorite episode so far. They are so genuinely happy for each other. I love seeing that. I commented something to that effect on a previous episode, but the boys are just harvesting those Ws. It is epic to see, and even more epic to see how happy they are on each other's behalfs. It was also wonderful having Meg back. The boys left to their own devices tend to derail any kind of structure to these free flowing conversations. She just makes it stick somehow, and it makes a world of difference while also feeling entirely natural. What a talented bunch of people.

[@adamrucinski4019]

The Sunny guys have always admitted that Charlie is essentially who they follow in a scene. His energy, his ad libs, and what he brings to a scene always makes it memorable. Not taking away from Glenn and Rob, but I firmly believe Charlie is the reason casual fans become obsessive fans. And if he's unhinged or exuberant in his movie, it's because Sunny has allowed him to explore and go so far in a character that he feels comfortable not even speaking in a film. I absolutely cannot wait to see it. Charlie takes an illiterate, degenerate, drunk, drug addict maniac and makes us all want to hang out with him. Side note: Glenn is still my favorite actor in the show. He's Dennis whether he likes it or not. Lol.

The production value of this pod is getting increasingly impressive. I know other people get elaborate intros and animations made, but the audio quality here is just Crispy AF. A++ compression and mixing. I hope someone gets my Bupkis reference (a show I hate with one of the best Charlie Day performances ever)

[@Bittamin]

I feel like if they’re compressing anything it would hopefully be very light. Otherwise there wouldn’t be any dynamic range in the volume that they speak at. It’s definitely gain matched very well, and I agree the audio is very crispy. I’m also assuming the microphones and recording setup on a physical level is helping to make the mixing in post production a lot easier. The hardware does the “hard” work 😅 Definitely could be using a limiter to keep the peaks of audio uniform though, but adding a lot of gain to the lowest volume in dialogue while decreasing the peaks of the highest volume (compression) could lead to more issues than it would solve. I still gotta go to school for this so take what I’m saying with a grain of salt 😂

[@chrundlethegreat2251]

@@Bittamin I'm simply paying attention to the movement. The pickup pattern in those SM 7B's are pretty central. I see them almost going waaaaay off that range quite a lot with great retention of volume and dynamic range. I'm also no expert, but sat at the desk for quite a few live shows in pubs and mic control is critical if you have no compression. These guys require NO mic control so the compression must be on point.

I don’t think I have seen a fan casting of any superhero movie ever that doesn’t include Glenn as a villain, major or minor. I’m glad that more people behind the scenes are seeing that now as well

[@liamobrien6151]

Just watched "Blackberry" here at Cinneplex in Saint John NB Canada. Glen is brilliant. Rest of the cast is pretty special too. Shout out to the great Michael Ironside! Everybody should go see "Blackberry." We will also be going to see Fool's paradise soon.

[@jsmithers.]

Don't bother, Fools Paradise is bad. Blackberry was great though.

[@TopGoodBoi]

Holy shit both of these movies look entertaining. Glenns performance...just from the trailer is insane.

So glad Charlie mentioned the trampoline speech at the end, it also leapt to my mind 🤣🤣🤣

[@Ronsonator]

I love these Charlie Day warm opens.

Glen is doing caffeine correctly. If you don't want to crash, wait 90 minutes in the morning before you start having caffeine. The exact mechanic is complicated, but the same mechanism that makes you feel awake will stop you from actually waking normally.

[@sonsofthesportsguy]

Oof. The reviews for Charlie's movie are abysmal. Poor guy. The reviews for Blackberry, however, are overwhelmingly positive.

I would just retire if I was Charlie💀

Just watched both films before finishing this episode. Loved them both! I don't understand the Fool's Paradise RT score. I think a lot of the critics just didn't understand the film. I remember watching Being There for the first time and getting a distinct, difficult to describe, but pleasant, feeling from it, I got the same from Fool's Paradise. I laughed a bunch of times and teared up at the end big time. There are so many shots in Fool's Paradise that I want to try to make my desktop wallpaper because they were so beautiful. It's the kind of movie that screams cult classic because it's so misunderstood by the general audience and critics. Blackberry was really intense and reminded me of a favorite series of mine, Halt and Catch Fire. Glenn was incredible in it, now I get the calls for him to be the new Lex Luthor.

Charlie needs to come out with an album Whenever I hear him play music, I hunger for more

[@andersonanderson1009]

Hadn't heard of BLACKBERRY until this and just saw the reception: holy frijoles. Day is in probably the biggest box-office movie this year, Rob just had a "soon to be a 'Base On a True Story' movie" season with Wrexham and Glenn may well get an acting nod if these reviews for BLACKBERRY stay up and the film gets some traction in theatres. Wild year for these guys.

Fool’s Paradise: 13% from critics, 34% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes

ya it’s bad

[@harrymills9582]

the amount of pride i have in the whole gang is unbelievable i cant believe it took this long for them to be in something so big (not counting their tv shows and the movies charlie has been in as they were great mythic quest especially)

[@zetetik]

I just love Charlie's loose, relaxed playing. Really puts me in a good mood.

[@brentulstad3275]

I cannot wait to see both of these unique films in a local theater! They are absolutely right that there is such a void of truly great "comedic" films in recent years. There are always so-called "comedies" getting made, but rarely appear to be anything worth getting excited about. Thank you all & best of luck (like you really need it)😜
