Summary
“Rusty Nail is clearly a fan of Looney Tunes” - Steve
On a very special We ❤️ Movies, the gang welcomes Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett from Radio Silence to chat about the great John Dahl highway thriller, Joy Ride!
How awesome is all the neon lighting in this movie? How great is the cast here, including a never-better Paul Walker? Can we find a theater to book-in a short series on “motel movies”? How great is it to have so many killer car stunts in this? And remember when we could have eerie, ambiguous movie endings without assuming they were just cash-grab sequel setups? PLUS: Be sure to catch Matt & Tyler’s latest film, the super-fun, super-bloody Ready or Not 2: Here I Come, which is a must-see in theaters, y’all! Out everywhere wide on Friday, with early shows starting Thursday night.
Joy Ride stars Steve Zahn, Paul Walker, Leelee Sobieski, Jessica Bowman, and the great Ted Levine as the voice of Rusty Nail; directed by John Dahl.
Be sure to catch us on the road in Minneapolis on 3/20 and Chicago on 3/22 where we’ll be talking Conan the Barbarian and Big respectively. Tickets on sale now!
