Filmdrunk 120: Matt Ufford, Looper and Butt Chugging



This week, we bring on Matt Ufford to talk about the world wide phenomenon known as butt chugging, discuss Looper, we read listener questions (mostly about relationships) and have a grand ol time. Drunk on!

We are coming to Chicago for a Live Frotcast! Check out our Kickstarter project and help us out.

    00:00:00 – Things kick off with Party Enema by NOFX introducing some butt chugging talk. The guys bring up the thought of butt chugging being part of the Presidential campaign platform, and get into some debate talk. Brendan does some impressions, and the guys go over the names of the Romney children. We hear about Microphone Mike Michaelson getting pulled back into duty. The guys set up the clip of the butt chugging press conference which involves the stereotypical Southern lawyer. Vince tells a tale about the drinking prowess of an Irishman.
    00:13:55 – Regular guest Matt Ufford joins the Frotcast for the playing of the butt chugging clip where the Southern lawyer repeatedly mentions “butt chugging.” Vince gets into the religious aspect of the story, and the guys question the state the accused was found in. Matt shares some fraternity stories from his time at Northwestern. They all come to the conclusion that the alleged “butt chugger” will become a legend within his fraternity.
    00:41:50 – The guys get into reviewing Looper, but before that can happen Brendan wants to talk about the trailers shown before the film and Hollywood’s treatment of bullies. Bret declares “street law” by taking Ben to task for his taste in films. The guys get into the review with talk of future drugs, the distraction of making JGL look like Bruce Willis, and accepting a SciFi premise for what it is. Matt brings up Rian Johnson’s debut, Brick, and is not having any time-travel talk.
    01:04:55 – SPOILER ALERT! Matt gets the ball rolling on the spoilers, there is something about Piper Perabo being topless, and Bret goes off on Ben.
    01:10:10 – Vince imagines his director’s cut version by adding some more scenes for Emily Blunt…and a pie. Looper reminds Matt of Face/Off, and the guys were pretty impressed with JGL’s impression of Willis. Matt gets some questions from the listeners dealing with wives getting fatter, jerking off in the shitter on base, and whether to wait for a girl or go traveling. Somehow hymen restoration and tank jerk were brought up. The guys get asked a movie question about what movie they didn’t like but thought would be improved with a different actor.
    01:35:22 – Ben has issues with the Cloud Atlas trailer, but Matt highly recommends the book and its author. Vince culminates his fantasy about Emily Blunt, and Vloggeraptor.

We’re coming to Chicago November 3d! Mark your calendars! This week on the Frotcast, Joe King is LIVE IN THE FROTQUARTERS! Joe unveils that he no longer has a stage name, so meet Joe Sinclitico. Brendan reads us an email from his girlfriend’s mom about accidentally hitting a Chinese man in the nuts at Costco, we talk about Knuckle, the documentary about bare-knuckle gypsy brawlin’, and Joe answers some of your questions about his mom and being a porn cameraman. After that, Joe Kin– er, Sinclitico, pitches us some new movie ideas, and indulges his strange obsession with Tevin Campbell. After that, things get a little fuzzy. We discussed what ever happened to Dauber from Coach. We play some audio from Ryan Lochte’s crazy sister who seems to love a certain racial slur for Chinese people. At one point Joe accidentally stops the recording on my computer while he Googles Tevin Campbell stuff, so we lost about 15 minutes there, but hey, if you don’t enjoy total disasters, hey, I don’t know why you’d be listening to a Frotcast, especially one with Joe as the guest. Enjoy!
