I saw a couple. I actually saw a couple. I went out and I saw I go.
I saw that and. I liked it, but it was funny when Ben Affleck, they say, what's
your name?
And he goes, my name is Tony Mendez. I remember thinking in my head going Mendez.
I think that's a Latino name. I know it's not a white name. I know I've never
met anybody.
I never met a white guy. Hey, what's your name? Larry.
Larry, what? Rodriguez. Larry Mendez. It's not, you know, it's not like one of
those crossover names.
So in the end of the movie, spoiler alert, they had this is just shit in the
credits.
They just have, you know, they have a picture of everybody, you know, each cast
because this was a true story.
So each cast member. Is, you know, I should talk to this. I should talk to me
about this.
You know, that's this is it. We're going to do a fucking another neolog this
week.
And I'm going to talk about this because they had, you know, the six actors who
are fucking unreal, who played the the people trying to get out of Iran.
They showed a close up picture of the actor right next to a close up picture of
like the photo ID of the person that they were playing.
And it was fucking dead on. They looked exactly like the person.
And then there's like another minute or so of credits.
And then they finally show the real Tony Mendez.
And the picture is like a full body shot of the guy from like halfway across
the room, shaking hands with Jimmy Carter.
And you're looking at the guy and he looks like Bartolo Colon's dad.
And me and Nia just started laughing our asses off.
And, you know, it was it was one of those moments, one of those Hollywood
moments.
And then I looked on the Internet and there was people complaining, going, what
the fuck, you know, how come you couldn't get a Latin actor to do it?
But but but but but boo and all that shit.
I think it's fucked up because it was a real dude and he's a hero.
He did some unreal shit.
So because it's a real dude who did some real heroic shit, you should have a
Latin dude.
Play the guy so everybody knows that that win is in their column.
You know, that's one for Latinos, you know, so the next time you get into a barroom
argument, you know, well, do we invent in the airplane?
And then the Latin guy can be like, yeah, well, we're the ones who got those
six motherfuckers on the plane and got them into Canada.
Right.
And all of your shit, both sides, you're in a bar.
So none of you read.
It's all based on the movies.
But now it's going to cause a fight in a bar because someone's going, no, you
didn't.
It was a white guy.
The guy's going, no, it was fucking Tony Mendez.
And they fuck you.
Then why was it played by Ben Affleck?
And then there's going to be a big fight.
But on the other side, is if you got a fucking million dollars and you need the
movie to sell, what do you do?
I still think they should have, they should have gone, they should have got
Louise Guzman.
Oh, Jesus.
