THAT YOU CAN SEE IS A MOVIE
REVIEWER. GREG RUSSELL. GOOD TO
SEE YOU TOO. SEE YOU ALWAYS TO
SEE YOU TOO GOOD TO SEE YOU,
GREG. THANKS FOR BRINGING THE
POPCORN. PLEASE ENJOY. DON’T
DON’T DON’T TEMPT ME. LET’S GET
STARTED. LET’S TALK ABOUT LET’S
TALK ABOUT BIG GEORGE FOREMAN, A
BIOPIC IN THE LIFE OF THE TWO
TIME HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE
WORLD. IT’S A REALLY NEAT STORY
BECAUSE WE ALL WE’VE ALL HEARD
THE STORIES ABOUT HIS UPS HIS
DOWN SOUNDS AND THINGS THAT HAD
HAPPENED. BUT A LOT OF THE
STUFF. OF COURSE. YOU DON’T HAVE
ALL THE INFORMATION IN THIS
MOVIE. YOU GET IT AND ESPECIALLY
SHOWS IN THE BEGINNING HOW IT
WASN’T FOR THE TRAINER PLAYED BY
FOREST WHITAKER GETTING HIM ON
THE PATH TO BOXING. HE
DEFINITELY WOULD HAVE GONE DOWN
A DIFFERENT ROAD WAS IN THIS
MOVIE. YEAH TALK TO FOREST AND
ALSO GEORGE HIMSELF, AND IT WAS
REALLY SPECIAL TALKING TO GEORGE
FOREMAN. SO I WANT TO SHARE IT
WITH YOU RIGHT NOW. GEORGE
FOREMAN. WHAT A PLEASURE. IT IS
TO SEE YOU, SIR. RUSSELL WAS
GLAD I’M HAPPY TO SEE YOU TOO,
AND I DON’T HAVE TO FIGHT YOU.
AH I JUST BE RUNNING AROUND THE
RING GOING RING THE BELL. AH HA!
OH MAN. WELL, GEORGE ENJOYED THE
MOVIE. I MEAN, YOU KNOW,
OBVIOUSLY HAD HEARD ABOUT ALL
THE STORIES YOU KNOW, EVEN
STARTING WAY BACK WHEN YOU FIRST
GOT INTO THE BOXING AND ALL
THAT. WHAT’S IT LIKE FOR YOU TO
SEND THE AUDIENCE AND WATCH THIS
SAYING THIS IS MY STORY BOY,
CHRIS DAVIS, THE GUY WHO DID THE
SCENES OF GEORGE FOREMAN PLAYED
GEORGE FOREMAN. AND WHAT A JOB
HE HAD ME ON THE EDGE OF MY
SEAT. MY SEAT EVEN MADE ME CRY A
FEW TIMES WITH THE PUNCHING
POWER HE HAD. AND THEN DOC
BROADUS WAS FAR AS WHITAKER, THE
TRAINER WHO NEVER GAVE UP ON ME.
BUT IT WAS REALLY A JOURNEY BACK
THROUGH LIFE. I SHARE A FEW
TEARS WATCHING THAT MOVIE. EVEN
THOUGH IT’S BEEN MORE THAN 50
YEARS NOW. ANY TIME. ANY OF US
SEE SOMEBODY YOU KNOW IN THE
MOVIE OR FIGHT OR WHATEVER GO
DOWN. EVERYBODY ALWAYS SAYS DOWN
GOES FRAZIER DOWN GOES FRAZIER,
AND IT’S LIKE IN THE MOVIE. IT’S
LIKE, OH, MAN! THAT WAS IT, YOU
KNOW, BACK IN THE DAY WITH
HOWARD COSELL MOST UNBELIEVABLE
MOMENT IN MY LIFE BECAUSE JOE
FRAZIER WAS TRULY THE GIANT
SLAYER. HE WENT OUT AND NO
MATTER HOW BIG THE GUYS WHO ARE
LOOKED LIKE THE BIGGER THEY ARE
THOSE SAYING, THE HARDER WE
FAIL. I STOOD UP TO JOE FRAZIER
. I WAS AFRAID OF HIM. THE ONLY
TIME I’VE GOTTEN INTO THE RING I
WAS AFRAID OF SOMEONE. AND
KNOCKED HIM DOWN, OUT OF PURE
FACE OUR FEAR. I WAS AFRAID.
OBVIOUSLY YOU AND ALI HAD YOUR
THINGS GOING, BUT HOW AT THE
INDIVIDUAL LIFE YOU GUYS WERE
GOOD FRIENDS WHO TALKED ALL THE
TIME. I MADE THE MOST WONDERFUL,
LONG LASTING FRIENDSHIP I HAD IN
MOHAMMED ALI. WE TALKED ON THE
TELEPHONE, AND THEN THEY ADD THE
ADVENT OF THE CAMERA ON THE
PHONE. WE DON’T WATCHED EACH
OTHER. HE BOASTED ABOUT HOW MANY
GRANDKIDS HE HAD. I NEVER COULD
CATCH UP WITH HIM. HE THOUGHT HE
ALWAYS WANTED TO WIN. I GOT FIVE
ARE YOU ONLY HAVE FOUR. I HAVE
FIVE BOTH ABOUT THAT. I LOVE
THAT GUY. TO THIS DAY. I’VE
NEVER FORGOTTEN THE LOVE I HAD
R IT. IT IS DAY LOVE THEM. BUT
I LOVE IT WHO KNEW SO AMAZING
WITH BOXERS LIKE HE SAID ALI,
GOOD FRIENDS ALL THE WAY UP TO
THE END. IT’S EVEN LIKE TOMMY
HEARNS, ARGY AND SUGAR RAY
LEONARD, TALK EVERY DAY. WOW
THAT’S I LOVE THAT MANY REELS
FOR THIS ONE. GEORGE TOLD ME HE
BEAT ME UP IF I GAVE IT ANYTHING
LESS THAN A FOUR. SO FOUR FOR
YOU, GEORGE. MY GOODNESS. SMART
MOVE, GREG RUSSELL. YOU DON’T
KNOW WHEN YOU’RE GONNA FIGHT
GEORGIA. I DON’T WANT TO KNOW
ABSOLUTELY LOVE. WHAT HE SAID.
HE WAS LIKE, I’M JUST HAPPY. I
DON’T HAVE TO FIGHT YOU. I
WOULD’VE BEEN HAPPY TO I’M GREG.
I’M HAPPY. FINALLY WE HAVE THE
MOVIE BASED OFF JUDY BLUME’S
NOVEL. ARE YOU THERE? GOD IT’S
ME. MARGARET TALKED TO US ABOUT
THIS. NEVER THOUGHT I’D SEE THIS
TURNED INTO A MOVIE BLOOM. WOW.
I MEAN, IT’S BASICALLY ALL
WOMEN. THEY’RE WATCHING. THEY
ALL ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH. AND SO
DID THE MEN WHO WERE THERE
BECAUSE I START WITH JODIE GIRL
SITTING NEXT TO ME GOING. OH, I
REMEMBER THOSE DAYS. YOU KNOW
ABOUT WHATEVER THE SITUATION WAS
, AND IT DOES HAVE STUFF FOR
GUYS. YOU KNOW, LIKE THERE WAS A
GREAT THING ABOUT THE KISSING
GAMES SPIN THE BOTTLE TAKES
PLACE IN 1970. YES YOU SPEND THE
BOTTLE AND IT WOULD LAND ON
SOMEBODY AND IF IT DIDN’T LAND
ON THE PERSON WHO WANTED TO KISS
YOU LIKE THE SCENE FROM THE BOOK
I WAS LIKE, WHAT DO THEY DO? HE
SAID. YOU KNOW, THE WAS LIKE, I
DON’T REMEMBER THAT PART OF THE
BOOK. YOU WERE ABOUT TO BE LIKE
GIRL. STOP PLAYING AROUND, NOT
COME ON. YES. OKAY FUN. THINGS
LIKE THAT. I KNOW WE’VE GOT A
CLIP AND WE’RE GONNA EXPLAIN
MORE ABOUT SPIN THE BOTTLE WHILE
YOU WATCH THIS PART NECESSARY,
AMAZING. PLAY UP. GOD INCREDIBLE
BOXES. DON’T WORRY ABOUT THAT. I
WANT TO HEAR MORE ABOUT HIM.
WHAT ELSE YOU LEARNED? WHAT ELSE
DID YOU MOVING? WHAT WOW
PROMISED. WE’RE MOVING ITS BOXES

THINK SHE WAS JUST WANTED YOU.
TO SETTLE IN BEFORE WE SPRUNG
THE NEWS, BUT YOUR DAD GOT HIS
PROMOTION. YEAH ISN’T THAT GREAT
? AND WE FOUND THIS GREAT HOUSE
WHERE BEST THING WE GOT REALLY
LUCKY JERSEY. AH! ALL RIGHT. SO
WHAT DID YOU THINK, GREG? I
ENJOYED IT, TOO, BECAUSE IT
TAKES PLACE DURING THE TIME WHEN
I WAS GROWING UP AS WELL. SO I
GOT TO ENJOY, LIKE THE CLOTHES
AND DIFFERENT THINGS. AND JUST
THE OTHER FUNNY THINGS THAT WENT
ON DURING THAT TIME. AND THEN
AGAIN, YOU KNOW, WATCHING WITH
JODI. JUST SEEING OR HEARING HER
TALK ABOUT, YOU KNOW? YEAH THAT
WAS THE TYPE OF STUFF GIRLS HAD
TO GO THROUGH IN REAL QUICK IN
SUCH A RUSH TO GROW UP AND THEN
YOU GET THERE AND YOU BE LIKE,
CAN I GO BACK? LISTEN ACT LIKE
SHE DIDN’T KNOW WHAT’S BEEN A
BOTTLE WAS YOUR MAMA MUST BE
