2 Fast 2 Forever #407 – D.E.B.S. (2004)
Leesa Charlotte (Sweetbitter Podcast) returns to the show to talk about Jordana Brewster and Devon Aoki in D.E.B.S.! After Lisa gives us a brief history of gay cinema, Joey talks about Holland Taylor in Bosom Buddies. We admire Jordana Brewster as the villainous Lucy Diamond (especially her lip syncing scene) in a role that finally lets her have fun, and we equally admire Devon Aoki’s ability to… be French and smoke cigarettes.
We talk about the hidden test within the SAT, the Jordana Brewster/Jimmi Simpson dynamic, and the Toretto-esque cop and criminal love story. We make our picks for our favorite spy tech in the movie and ask an Australian about Lucy’s plan to destroy Australia (which pivots into talk about Australia in movies and TV, which in turn pivots into talk about LOST and The Leftovers).
We then turn out focus to the Fast & Furious: A Musical Parody that we all saw in the past week. We talk about why we evaluate it differently than most people, what we liked and what we wished was different, and why they decided to portray Roman the way they did.
