Jenna Dewan finds her DWTS spark, how we predicted Digger box office bomb

Scott Patterson (0:02)

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

SPEAKER_2 (0:06)

So I'm doing these like, I'm trying to get my arm muscles to like exist. So I've been doing all these like weights, like five pound weights, like, oh, oh, you know what I mean?

Oh, my abs.

Scott Patterson (0:20)

Have you ever done bar? I am gonna answer my question. You have never done bar before. I feel like you're not a class kind of girl.

SPEAKER_2 (0:25)

No, I don't want to be around like people watching me suck.

Scott Patterson (0:29)

Well, they have in bar, you hold these one or two pound dumbbells, and you're in class being like, this is the easiest workout of my entire life. This is a joke. I'm lifting one pound weights, literally.

SPEAKER_2 (0:47)

And then what happens?

Scott Patterson (0:48)

The next morning, you cannot move your arms.

SPEAKER_2 (0:51)

It's my stomach. Yeah, lifting these weights has impacted my abs.

Scott Patterson (0:55)

You're using your core.

SPEAKER_2 (0:56)

Well, I'm using my core. Should we talk about that we predicted something or should we talk about Dancing with the Stars first?

Scott Patterson (1:06)

The prediction.

SPEAKER_2 (1:07)

We called it, roll back the tape, that Digger was going to bomb.

Scott Patterson (1:13)

You called it.

SPEAKER_2 (1:14)

We love Tom Cruise, but we knew Digger was going to bomb.

Scott Patterson (1:17)

Because we didn't understand.

SPEAKER_2 (1:18)

Now, I don't think we said this on the air, but I texted you that Verity was going to bomb and you were like, it's absolutely not going to bomb.

Scott Patterson (1:27)

It bombed.

Jackie (1:28)

It beat Digger. It beat Digger.

SPEAKER_2 (1:31)

Poor Tom. He worked so hard.

Scott Patterson (1:34)

He took up so many shirts.

SPEAKER_2 (1:36)

He went through that spirit tunnel. He was dancing, wearing those sunglasses, doing everything he could.

It was going to bomb because no one understood what it was. Yeah.

Jackie (1:49)

And I guess anyone goes to it.

Scott Patterson (1:51)

I'm surprised. I am surprised Verity bombed because that felt like it was, it looked kind of good.

Jackie (1:57)

No, I don't think it bombed though. It made 32 million. That's not a bomb. I think it's just like the reaction.

SPEAKER_2 (2:03)

The reviews are horrible. And Google did Verity bomb. Because I Google did Digger bomb and the Internet said yes.

Scott Patterson (2:12)

Yes.

Jackie (2:12)

Hollywood Reporter, Deadline, everybody said that Digger bomb.

SPEAKER_2 (2:17)

Tom, look. Tom, call me. You know what?

Scott Patterson (2:19)

We've been a part of podcasts that bombed and it's okay. It's a part of the thing, the process.

SPEAKER_2 (2:25)

We've never had a full bomb though. Never.

Scott Patterson (2:27)

Yes, we have.

SPEAKER_2 (2:28)

Just mouth the words. What was our biggest bomb? See your mouth. Give it again. Because you know what's weird is because you're mouthing it.

Scott Patterson (2:35)

I'm going to mute myself.

SPEAKER_2 (2:37)

Yeah.

Scott Patterson (2:37)

Yeah.

SPEAKER_2 (2:39)

I wouldn't call that a bomb.

Scott Patterson (2:41)

Okay. And then I don't know who you're going to.

SPEAKER_2 (2:43)

Can you just text me this? Yeah.

Jackie (2:45)

Put it in our chat.

SPEAKER_2 (2:46)

We've had non-hits, but we've never had a bomb that just like one person listened to. Oh, correct. But she said the name.

It wasn't a bomb. It just didn't do great.

Scott Patterson (2:58)

They were pretty bomby.

SPEAKER_2 (2:59)

They were bomby as far as we're concerned.

Scott Patterson (3:04)

I know what I'm saying.

Jackie (3:05)

The beginning of you guys creating this department.

SPEAKER_2 (3:08)

Of our journey together.

Scott Patterson (3:09)

Yeah.

SPEAKER_2 (3:10)

Everybody's got to have a bomb now and then. It keeps you.

Scott Patterson (3:13)

I feel like we're missing a good one. I'm going to look through my notes.

SPEAKER_2 (3:16)

I know another one.

Scott Patterson (3:18)

Which one?

SPEAKER_2 (3:19)

Oh, yes. We're sorry to everybody listening, but look, everybody needs to bomb now and then or fail because-

Scott Patterson (3:29)

That was so good.

SPEAKER_2 (3:30)

Tom Cruise is going to come back so strong because here's why. He's going to have the car maybe. Days of thunder. Yeah, days of thunder, top gun three, and then Tom, Tom, Tom. Listen, Jerry Maguire, you need to do another rom-com. Yeah. That's what the people want to see you do. Do you know how many 20-year-olds I saw writing?

Why do I think Tom Cruise is hot? Tom, 20-somethings think you're hot. Give them what they want. They don't want you looking insane.

I didn't even know you were allowed to say fat suits, but I'm just going to say it. I didn't know you were even allowed to say fat suit. Nobody wants to see that. They don't want to see Tom Cruise with weird gray hair looking. Not great. They want to see hot Tom. So give us what we want.
