Bob Barker being in the movie is said to have aged worst because the shock of seeing The Price Is Right host was so tied to its era. — Bill Simmons
The movie is said to have aged wonderfully; whether Chubbs had to die is questioned, but his death is defended as stakes, with Shooter's dedication enraging Happy. — Bill Simmons
Richard Kiel's casting is proposed because head trauma from a 1992 accident limited his movement; another participant cannot imagine the movie without him. — Bill Simmons
The movie is called inoffensive and still hilarious, watched as happily as 23 years earlier. — Sean Fennessey
Opening credits; Kevin Nealon energy scene; unresolved: auction scene, batting cage with Chubbs, Bob Barker fight (one later switched to the opening credits; picker unidentified)
A coin flip settles that the opening credits count as their own candidate; they include the hockey footage, the skate line, Happy with his dad and the fake-penis rake and gas-pump sequence. — Bill Simmons
The opening origin story is called insane and dark: the mother moves to Egypt, the father dies at a hockey game, and Richard Kiel takes a nail in the head.
A child's first viewing of the gas-pump bit and the first documented "you think you better than me" are recalled; the credits are scored with Tuesday's Gone. — Bill Simmons
Tuesday's Gone is called the best Skinner song; it was also used in a 1993 film rendered 'days and confused' in the transcript, and the band got a bump from Sweet Home Alabama in Forrest Gump.
The girlfriend breakup is called a direct rip-off of Stripes, still amazing in execution.
The Waterbury Open double bogey with the shirt off and Jump Around is a candidate, along with the driving-range invitation and the batting cage.
The Chubbs alligator line is a favorite joke. — Bill Simmons
The clubhouse scene with the gold jackets and the ninth-green sprinkler trick is called the best. — Bill Simmons
The Bob Barker fight at the Pepsi Pro Am is a candidate; Barker's real boxing stance and the MTV Movie Awards best fight are recalled.
The happy place, tainted and pure, is a candidate, and Julie Bowen is called a rocket ship from that scene.
Joe Flaherty's Red Lobster subplot with Shooter, Frankenstein's foot, the auction scene and the Ben Stiller subplot are added as candidates.
The Bob Barker scene is called the best and most rewatchable, including Barker getting madder in the build-up. — Bill Simmons
The first picks named are the auction scene, the batting cage with Chubbs, and Barker.
One participant switches their pick to the opening credits, and another says they might do the same; who switched is not identified.
The Kevin Nealon energy scene is called a favorite and was a constant reference on the Uncut Gems set.
During a later category, one participant says the rewatchable went to Barker, and another asks whether they changed the rewatchable to the opening sequence; the question is not answered.
The candidates are the giant Harvey, who is confirmed not to be Richard Kiel from the Bond movies and may not be a true giant since they shot him from below, and Strother Martin, who gets the award with agreement for going for it in his scene, with the 'you're going to die bloody' line recalled; Strother Martin appears in all three 1969 westerns, True Grit, The Wild Bunch and this one.
