Maynk 2: Paynke: Punke[]
In the second series of episodes looking at a director's filmography, The Doughboys tackle Paynke, a month of Alexander Payne's movies.
The Holdovers
For this episode, they discuss Payne's 2023 movie, The Holdovers.
During Paynke, as with Maynk, they rate the movie on a scale of 0-10 inches of computer-generated Neanderthal Affleck Hog.
Nick and Mitch seemed to enjoy the film more on this second viewing than when they watched it initially on their own (both originally would've considered it around a 6 out of 10). None of Doughboys crew think it is a very top Payne movie, but do enjoy it and rate it well.
| guest / host | rating |
|---|---|
| Nick Wiger | 9 inches |
| Mike Mitchell | 8 inches |
Paynke Ranke[]
Nick offers his rankings of all the Payne movies. (He did also watch the two movies they didn't cover for the podcast.)
- Sideways
- Election
- About Schmidt
- The Holdovers
- Nebraska
- Downsizing
- Citizen Ruth
- The Descendants
Mitch mostly agrees, and didn't list, but seems to have Nebraska and About Schmidt swapped (in 3rd and 5th, respectively).
Further, looking at the Hog Inches ratings for the six Payne movies The Doughboys covered, their rankings match the top-6 of Nick's list above.
Quotes[]
| “ | Stop washing the baby ducks in your soap! We don't need to see you washing the baby ducks in the soap. We get that your soap is good. You don't have to wash a baby duck to prove it. You know what I mean? Don't wash a baby duck! That's all I'm saying. The ducklings... you don't gotta wash them off. You don't have to give the baby duckling a bath. | ” |
