Maynk 2: Paynke[]
Election
In the second series of episodes looking at a director's filmography, The Doughboys tackle Paynke, a month of Alexander Payne's movies.
For this episode, they discuss Payne's 1999 movie, Election.
During Paynke, as with Maynk, they rate the movie on a scale of 0-10 inches of Affleck Hog (or a Neanderthal's).
Everyone really likes the movie and consider it one of Payne's best (maybe just behind Sideways).
| guest / host | rating |
|---|---|
| Nick Wiger | 10 inches |
| Mike Mitchell | 9.5 inches |
| Jess McKenna | 9 inches |
Casey hadn't seen the movie in a long time, but based on his memory, he rated it 7 inches.
