Today on Elevator Pitch, we're chopping it up about your favorite character actor's favorite character actor. Diilon Panther. Known rival of Lil Bow Wow. Meth dealer. Civil War PATRIOT? Utah statesman. And now...star of a movie called Begonia. It's Jesse Plemons! First we chat about our favorite Plemons. LIKE MIKE. CIVIL WAR. FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS. JUNGLE CRUISE??? The highs and the even highers. Then we have one of our world famous pitch conversations, crafting two new vehicles for the phenom himself (35:12).

Today on the pod, we welcome back screenwriter and Bruce Springsteen expert Marc Brockwell to chat about DELIVER ME FROM NOWHERE and its star...beef sandwhich artist, 80s wrestler, guy named Lip, professional hotmaxxer, and now Bruce Springsteen himself...Mr. Jeremy Allen White. Listen y'all, we know you probably didn't see this movie. BUT THAT'S OKAY. It's a great convo nonetheless. Plus we do a little investigation on his sauce (35:06). And if you need to skip ahead...y'all know where to pick up. Those damn JAW pitches (48:50). And ohhhh buddy, they're good. Maybe too good.MEMES AND CLIPS:https://www.instagram.com/theelevatorpitchpod/https://www.tiktok.com/@elevatorpitchpod?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pcWATCH MARC'S SHORT FILM HALL PASS:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gCO5YwnMQFQ&t=4s

Will is BACK from Croatia, and we knew there was only one star to pitch fake movies to this week. The late great Pinterest interior designer, racket ball player, playwright, mafia wife, and first wife...Diane Keaton. We remember the film icon and discuss how her emergence in 70s Hollywood classics informed her absurdly good 90s run, capped by a favorite of ours...Something's Gotta Give. Then we PITCH fake flick Keaton should've made hot off SGG, in the year 2003 (46:58).MEMES AND CLIPS:https://www.instagram.com/theelevatorpitchpod/https://www.tiktok.com/@elevatorpitchpod

It's time for Elevator Pitch to REWATCH. That's right. Matt is joined by Caleb Saad (Hug Your Bros) to rewatch Damien Chazelle's 2016 film La La Land starring Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling. Then, get this...they're gonna talk about it. I know. Incredibly original podcasting. Tune in to find out if we can pull it off.

What's next for the smashing machine?

Pitching is back on Elevator Pitch and and oh my god...it's Paul Thomas Anderson week. We become the first podcast in history to chat about his new movie ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER starring Leo, Benicio, Teyana Taylor, and introducing Chase Infiniti. Then we pitch (50:52) to the master of Masters, the hitmaker of dressmakers, the Orson Wells of porn, the mayor of Magnolia Boulevard, the guy who...directed There Will Be Blood. It's one of the greats. We're nervous, but we've got some pitches for him. So tune in.

It's been too long. Sorta forgot how to write these blurbs (and optimize them for seo purposes). But WE'RE BACK. Will catches us up on his month of filming another movie and Matt takes us through his world travels. Then... we don't pitch. Instead, it's a catch up of every single movie we watched and didn't get to chat about...including WEAPONS, THE NAKED GUN, and LAWRENCE LAMONTS'S ONE OF THEM DAYS. Two friends reuniting through the power of content creation. It doesn't get better than this.

Here's the deal...Elevator Pitch is gonna go on a little break. Why? Well we both just gotta buy a one way train ticket, performativity read Joan Didion, and stare out the damn window till we figure out who we really are. That's right. It's summer vacation. Time for us to TRAVEL. Will's heading off to do a movie and Matt's literally doing that first thing so we decided to chat travel movies...Well Will and Tanner chat travel movies before Matt comes off the top rope with a pitch (44:08). He can't be there live unfortunately. Treadstone is on his tails. And even worse...SCOTTY DOESN'T KNOW.

This week in the elevator, we’re getting a whole bunch of gangs back together. From the guys that brought you the comedies you love, comes a podcast about the legacy comedy sequels that inevitably come after. Did any of this make sense? Long story short…Caleb Saad joins us to chat about Happy Gilmore 2 and pitch some more legacy comedy sequels that don’t exist yet…and probably never should (1:02:30). Our most negative podcast yet! Join us as we get super existential about fart jokes and killing off your wife before the title credits.

We're taking this elevator to New Mexico for a pitch session and convo all about a true cinematic sicko...Ari Aster. But we can't do it alone. We're joined by stand up comedian and known Aster skeptic Noah Marger to chat about the auteur of the abominable and his new immunocompromised film EDDINGTON. What worked? What didn't? Did Tanner play one of the Antifa militants? Did Tanner play all of them? These answers and more. Only on Ari Aster's Elevator Pitch.
