Overview

In this lively postgame episode, Dan Le Batard, Stugotz, JuJu, Trista, Tony, and Greg explore the sometimes-absurd categorization of movie genres. A playful debate ensues over what truly constitutes a movie genre, fueled by recent discussions about categories like "shark movies" and JuJu's own list of the most obscure genres. The crew riffs on everything from Tyler Perry films to the infamous "Tubi movies," all while sharing laughs, cultural references, and a dose of friendly confusion.

Key Discussion Points & Insights

Defining "Movie Genres" (00:32–01:13)

• Stugotz opens the main discussion, raising Dan's controversial belief that very specific topics (e.g. "shark movies" or "baseball movies") deserve their own genres, while most others disagree.
  • “Dan also, for instance, believes that shark movies are its own genre. It's not like in the horror or thriller category. It's its own genre.” — Stugotz [00:51]
• Discussion exposes how subjective and personal the term "genre" can be within the group.

JuJu’s Top 5 Obscure Movie Genres (01:13–02:05)

JuJu energetically reveals his list, sparking both laughter and debate:

1. Tyler Perry Movie Genre: Instantly recognizable by tone, themes, and style.
2. Mockumentary Genre: Fake documentaries with a comedic twist.
3. Tarantino Films: “You already know n words.” — JuJu [01:40] (The group laughs; he alludes to iconic Tarantino movie language/themes).
4. Cult Films: Exampled with "Pulp Fiction," "Porky's," and "The Big Lebowski."
5. Tubi Movies: Highly specific, encompassing ultra-low-budget films notorious for questionable acting, usually found on the Tubi app.

“When you hear these names, you know exactly what kind of movie you about to watch.” — JuJu [01:17]

What Is a “Tubi Movie”? (02:05–02:38)

• Tony explains: "It's possibly the worst acting on God's green earth in every single scene..." [02:11]
• Stugotz connects the term to a viral moment with Jalen Rose being accused online of making a "Tubi movie" [02:17–02:26].
• Tony elaborates that Tubi films offer roles to people with no acting experience: “They're like, great, we've got a role.” [02:30]
• The group agrees that involvement with Tubi films can result in "cringe" but also laughs at the phenomenon.

Shark Movies: Horror or Not? (02:43–03:19)

• Greg admits never having heard of Tubi movies and recalls arguing with Dan about whether "Jaws" is a horror film.
  • “He referred to Jaws as a horror movie. And I don't see that as a horror movie." — Greg [02:54]
• Group discusses whether "Jaws" is better categorized as horror or something else, with reflections on the movie's impact.
  • “I guess if sharks is biting brothers on the beach, that's pretty horrific.” — JuJu [03:06]
  • Stugotz: “That sounds like a horror movie to me.” [03:16]

The "Greg Movie" Joke (03:19–03:47)

• In a running joke, Greg confesses his favorite genre is “Greg movies” — movies featuring actors named Greg or characters named Greg (e.g., Gregory Peck, Greg Brady, Greg Focker, etc.).
  • "We all like Greg movies. Come on." — Greg [03:46]

[B]

We got Juju and Trista here. Made the trip down. You're gonna be here with us the next couple days. Very excited to have you guys here. But did you hear Juju yesterday? Really? Over the last couple of days, Dan seems to have a.

[C]

A.

[B]

A definition of movie genre that maybe all of us are not on the same page about. Like, for instance, yesterday, Jeremy was trying to tell us that baseball movies are their own genre. That I think is nonsense. Like, that's a sports movie. That's the genre. Dan also, for instance, believes that shark movies are its own genre. It's not like in the. In the horror or thriller category. It's its own genre. Do you have a top five list for us?

[D]

Yes, sir. Man, if Dan says sharks is a genre, boy, do I got a top five for you. When you hear these names, you know exactly what kind of movie you about to watch. Number five, a Tyler Perry movie genre. Number four, a mockumentary genre. A Tarantino film. You already know n words. Number two, cult films.

[B]

Like, what's an example of that?

[D]

Like Pulp Fiction. Like, also a Tarantino. Yeah. Porky's Lebowski. Yeah. Yes, sir.

[B]

Yeah.

[E]

Okay.

[D]

And the number one sub genre to be movies. You know what you're getting yourself into?

[B]

No. What is that?

[E]

Oh, you don't want to know about those tubi movies.

[B]

I mean, I know it's an app, right?

[D]

Tell them, Tony.

[E]

It's. It's possibly the worst acting on God's green earth in every single scene of every single.

[B]

Oh, is that what everyone was bus on Jalen Rose about?

[E]

Yeah, they were.

[B]

That's a tubi movie.

[D]

Yes, sir.

[B]

Oh, so that's why people were saying, yo, Jalen Rose, you went out there, made a tubi movie.

[C]

Yeah.

[B]

Oh, see, I didn't know what that meant.

[E]

It's like, usually if you've never acted before, you, they're like, great, we've got a role.

[B]

Oh, okay. Because, yeah, that seems kind of cringe. Right? You know what I'm talking about?

[D]

Yes, sir. What you think, Greg? Are those. Do you have any more categories of movies that deserve their own genre?

[C]

I don't. I like those. Although I'd never heard of a to be movie. I. That's totally foreign to me. I got to look that up. I got to figure out what it is. The only thing on this topic that I remember arguing about with Levitard is that he referred to Jaws as a horror movie. And I don't see that as a horror movie. It's. There are scary scenes in it.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

With the shark and everything, but. Do you think that's a horror movie?

[D]

Dang, I never thought about it. I guess if sharks is biting brothers on the beach, that's pretty horrific. But then you add in the bikinis, so I don't know. I don't know if people were afraid

[B]

to go in the water after that movie came out. That sounds like a horror movie to me.

[C]

Really? Yeah. Okay, dad, what would you say is

[E]

your favorite genre of movies?

[C]

I like Greg movies. Like movies with like. Where the. Like a Gregory Peck film? Greg Brady.

[B]

Greg Focker.

[C]

Yeah, right. Exactly. The roosters. Yeah, right. Rooster.

[D]

Yeah.

[C]

Yes.

[D]

A new episode this week.

[C]

Yeah.

[D]

Some more similarities.

[C]

I am all over that. Gregory Hines. Gregory. There you go. A Greg movie. We all like Greg movies. Come on.

[B]

I know we had some good polls today, Juju, right?

[D]

Yes, sir. Man. While I pull them up, maybe a little reminder that Katie's burner might be back soon. We got to investigate. Find Katie's new burner.

[E]

He's talking about Shangun. You know exactly who it was.

[D]

Luke Canard. I wasn't familiar with your game, brother. 75% of the audience says yes. Do kids today know what a paper hanger is? 91% of the audience says no, they don't. Dang. The other ones are lying. Is a one legged punter the busiest? 81% of the audience says yes. He is Greg Hee Haw 3. Does a football being punted sound like the word punt? 86% of the audience says yes. And those are your pose.

[B]

Good job, Juju.

[D]

Thank you, brother.
