Dune? loving Dune?! Matt would have lost if she had known (what I thought was) an easy Final Jeopardy. Surprised only Carlo knew it.

I last saw it about 8 years ago on TV and it holds well, and I'll be buying the 4k come December

It’s a fantastic movie even ignoring the cartoon blending with live action element, though that is also great stuff that has never been topped. A solid detective story with Bob Hoskins and Christopher Lloyd.

I had absolutely no idea and guessed License to Kill because it seemed like a James Bond kind of plot. In my defence I was born in 1988.

She's still doing that 'interject trivia fact' thing that gets old after the second or third time. Otherwise she's not too terrible a host.

I’m pretty sure I saw Rodger Rabbit in the theater as a kid and at least one time as an adult and for the life of me I couldn’t come up with the answer.

I can literally quote that entire movie verbatim and it irritates me when people can't answer such an obvious question about it.

I can somewhat understand if they were in 1988 or one year off as the clue noted but those films were '81 and '84 Oddly enough, Matt noted in a interview with McNear that pop culture was a weak point for him and tried to shore it up https://www.theringer.com/tv/2021/9/20/22679773/matt-amodio-jeopardy-champion-win-streak-mike-richards-host

I've liked Matt since that game where his two opponents were in the red/barely in the white with only a handful of $400 clues to go, and I'm pretty sure he stopped playing to let them get fully out of the hole since he was a mile in front. Also everything I've heard from his opponents is that he's a super nice guy, very humble, and that they all like him a lot. Oddly, I never heard that said about a certain someone else.

What an insecure dick. When Holzhauer lost for the first time and barged into Emma's celebration, it felt like he was trying to make that moment about him, too. Plus, his joke doesn't even really make sense. His 23 day win streak was a big anomaly and his 23 day cash total was a huge anomaly. Those haven't become the standards for "being really good a Jeopardy." It's not like Matt is out there saying he's going to do what Holzhauer did, only better.

James has been doing a trashtalking bit on twitter ever since his original run (and really ramped it up around the GOAT tourney). It's pretty funny and everybody is in on it, so don't read too much into his tweets.

Some people do consider Holzhauer the new standard. I'm not saying they're right, but people like this exist, and make some pretty good points, and things I see Matt doing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Z922g9R6xE

Being this unstoppable juggernaut and not knowing a 200 dollar level clue Final Jeopardy about Who Framed Roger Rabbit is really funny. Then again Ken lost on a fairly easy one (but not that easy).

Everyone's got knowledge holes! Ken said that he'd never, ever have gotten H&R Block since he always did his own taxes. The "work from the bottom and bounce around the board" strategy is a good one.....if you're good enough to pull it off like Matt and James and a few others. Most contestants aren't.
