THIS MUCH HAVE BEEN GOOD TO
US OVER THE YEARS.
>> Jason: AND MY DAUGHTER
AND ME.
GREG REMEMBERS, THEY HAD
A SHOW BACK IN THE 70s AND
80s CALLED "3, 2, 1
CONTACT."
ELECTION DAY IS HERE YOU MAY
WANT TO HAVE SOMETHING TO
YOU KNOW PASS THE TIME.
I DON’T THINK "3, 2, 1
CONTACT" IS ON YOUR VIEWING
LIST.
WE ARE JOINED WITH SOME
MOVIES THAT WILL HELP YOU
GET THROUGH THE DAY.
MOVIE REVIEWER GREG RUSSELL
MY FRIEND.
WHAT’S GOING ON GREG?
>> DOING WELL JASON HOPE ALL
IS WELL.
>> Jason: ALL IS WELL.
LET’S TALK ABOUT
ENTERTAINMENT AND FILLING
THE TIME HERE IF YOU’RE AT
HOME ON LOCK DOWN YOU’RE NOT
AT WORK OR WORKING REMOTELY.
WE’RE ALL GOING TO BE
WAITING ON THOSE RESULTS.
WE MIGHT NOT GET RESULTS FOR
HOURS AND/OR DAYS.
WHAT IS YOUR FIRST PICK TO
PASS THE TIME?
>> WELL, I’VE GOT FOUR
MOVIES ABOUT BECOMING
PRESIDENT.
THE FIRST ONE IS "AMERICAN
PRESIDENT" MICHAEL DOUGLAS
AND ANNETTE BENEFITING.
HE IS A WIDOWER REALLY LOVED
BY THE PUBLIC BUT HE ALL OF
A SUDDEN STARTS DATING
ANNETTE BENEFITING WHO
HAPPENS TO BE LOBBYIST.
SO OF COURSE THE OTHER SIDE
IS TALKING ABOUT
IMPROPRIETIES AND HE’S
BEGINNING TO LOSE VOTES AND
PEOPLE FOLLOWING HIM.
BUT IT’S ALL ABOUT HIM JUST
HANGING IN THERE DOING HIS
BEST AND ALSO LOVE WINS OUT
IN THE END.
THERE WE GO THE AMERICAN
PRESIDENT.
I REMEMBER EVERYBODY ENJOYED
SEEING THAT ONE.
>> Jason: NEXT UP "HEAD OF
STATE" WITH BERNIE MAC THE
LATE GREAT AND CHRIS ROCK.
>> RIGHT THIS HAPPENS WHERE
THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT THAT
TOOK OUT THE PRESIDENT AND
VICE PRESIDENT.
SO THE OTHER SIDE DECIDES
WE’VE GOT TO FIND A
CANDIDATE TO RUN AGAINST WHO
PEOPLE ARE JUST GOING TO GO
NO WAY IS THIS GUY GONNA WIN
SO THEY HAPPEN TO BE GOING
THROUGH SOME TAPES SHE SEE
CHRIS ROCK HE’S LIKE AN
ALDERMAN IN HIS SMALL TOWN.
PERFECT GUY.
LITTLE DID THEY KNOW THAT
ALL OF A SUDDEN BY HIM GOING
OUT AND TELLING THE TRUTH
PEOPLE BEGAN TO FOLLOW HIM
AND LIKE HIM AND NEXT THING
YOU KNOW HE WINDS UP BEING
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED
STATES.
AND HIS BROTHER LIKE YOU
SAID PLAYED BY THE LATE
GREAT BERNIE MAC BECOMES HIS
ADVISOR.
BERNIE HE WAS AT HIS
FUNNIEST IN THIS MOVIE.
>> Jason: NEXT UP AN OLDER
MOVIE "MY FELLOW AMERICANS."
I’M PRETTY SURE I REMEMBER
THIS ONE.
>> YOU GOT IT.
JACK LEMMON MY ALL-TIME
FAVORITE ACTOR AND JAMES
GARNER AND DAN AKYROYD.
JACK HAS BOTH PLAYED A
PRESIDENT.
SOMETHING COMES UP IN HIS
ADMINISTRATION WHERE HE
TRIES TO BLAME IT ON THE TWO
FORMER PRESIDENTS.
SO THEY EVEN THOUGH THEY’RE
FROM DIFFERENT PARTIES BAND
TOGETHER TO GO UP AGAINST
HIM.
SO JAMES GARNER STILL HAS
ONE MORE TERM THAT HE CAN BE
PRESIDENT HE ONLY HAD ONE.
SO THAT’S THEIR DEAL IS TO
GET HIM IN OFFICE AND
GETTING A ROD AND ALL THE
REST OF -- AKYROYD AND ALL
THE REST OF HIS CROOKS OUT.
>> Jason: I LOVE THIS PICK
DUSTIN HOFFMAN, ROBERT DE
NIRO IT’S "WAG THE DOG."
>> IT’S A GREAT MOVIE.
ALL ABOUT A PRESIDENT WHO
GETS CAUGHT DOING SOMETHING
IMPROPER.
SO WHILE THAT NEWS IS COMING
OUT HIS CHIEF OF STAFF
PLAYED BY ANNE HECHE DECIDES
WE HAVE TO DO SOMETHING.
SHE HIRES THE BEST SPIN
DOCTOR IN THE COUNTRY PLAYED
BY ROBERT DE NIRO THEY
INVENT THIS WAR.
THAT KNOWS REAL WAR GOING
ON.
SO HE HIRES HOLLYWOOD
PRODUCER DUSTIN HOFFMAN TO
SHOOT THE MOVIE OR SHOOT THE
VIDEO OF AN ACTUAL WAR
THAT’S NOT REALLY HAPPENING.
BUT THEY GET IT OUT AND GET
IT ON ALL THE NEWS MEDIA SO
IT’S KIND OF TAKING AWAY ALL
THE ATTENTION FROM THE
PRESIDENT AND HIS
WRONGDOINGS TO PEOPLE BEING
CONCERNED ABOUT A WAR.
I REMEMBER JUST LIKE YOU
JASON, AFTER THIS MOVIE CAME
OUT SO MANY PEOPLE ARE GOING
DO YOU THINK THIS HAS EVER
REALLY HAPPENED?
>> Jason: LITTLE DID THEY
KNOW.
I WOULD ADD TO THAT "FROST
NIXON."
AND, AND, "GET OFF MY
PLANE."
HARRISON FORD.
>> THAT’S RIGHT.
>> THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE
SUGGESTIONS.
YOU GOT IT JASON THANK YOU
SO MUCH.
HAVE A GREAT REST OF YOUR
DAY.
SEE YOU FRIDAY.
