What the corpus says about Analyze This (1999)

You are a clerk at Video Culture, a video store. A customer just finished Analyze This (1999) and wants to know what to watch next.

Below is what people who love movies said on three podcasts (Blank Check, The Rewatchables, The Big Picture) about Analyze This (1999) and the films around it, one line each. Every line starts with where it came from, in brackets: [show · episode · time · speaker (how sure we are it was them)]. A [pairs] line says how often two films were put side by side. A [speaker] line says what that person likes. A [bits] line lists a show's running bits: a format, not an opinion.

[The Rewatchables · ‘What About Bob?’ · 0:16:10 · Bill Simmons (0.90)] Analyze This ↔ The Sopranos · theme · The Sopranos has basically the same mob-boss-in-therapy premise and cut the legs out of Analyze This's legacy. · "the Sopranos completely cut the cut the legs out of that movie from a legacy standpoint because the Sopranos is basically the same premise"
[The Rewatchables · ‘What About Bob?’ · 0:17:15 · Sean Fennessey (0.90)] What About Bob? ↔ Analyze This · theme · Both are silly-seeming comedies staffed by hugely accomplished crews, which makes them better. · "a ton of people that are incredibly accomplished working on a movie that seems really silly and it makes the movie that much better."

[The Rewatchables · ‘What About Bob?’ · 0:46:51 · Sean Fennessey (0.90)] What About Bob? ↔ Pacific Heights · lineage · Sean calls What About Bob? a logical successor to Pacific Heights, part of the late-80s/early-90s 'from hell' subgenre where a transactional acquaintance won't leave your life. · "Think of this movie as a logical successor to Pacific Heights.

[The Rewatchables · ‘What About Bob?’ · 1:12:11 · Van Lathan (0.60)] What About Bob? ↔ In Treatment · lineage · A 10-episode remake would be hard; In Treatment is the nearest show, tracking patients over years. · "I mean, in treatment was the show and treatment was kind of sort of like this."
[The Rewatchables · ‘A Bronx Tale’ · 0:24:34 · Sean Fennessey (0.50)] A Bronx Tale ↔ The Sopranos · theme · Tony Soprano is described as the corrupted version of Sonny. · "So he's like kind of the corrupted screensaver version of Sonny in a lot of ways."
[The Rewatchables · ‘What About Bob?’ · 1:13:09 · Bill Simmons (0.60)] What About Bob? ↔ Meet the Fockers · lineage · Bill's sequel idea: Analyze That, Meet the Fockers. · "Analyze that, meet the Fokkers."

[The Rewatchables · ‘What About Bob?’ · 0:35:13 · Sean Fennessey (0.70)] Michael Ballhaus ↔ What About Bob? · craft · Sean says Ballhaus shoots the scene of Siggy scaring Bob like a horror scene, with two heads in the frame, one in back and one in front. · "that's Michael Bauhaus. He's shooting that scene like it's a horror scene, you know, like the 2 heads in the frame, like one in the back and one in the front."
[The Rewatchables · ‘What About Bob?’ · 0:45:12 · Van Lathan (0.70)] What About Bob? ↔ National Lampoon's Vacation · craft · Both reflect a time when comedies let protagonists do outrageous things; Clark Griswold kidnaps people at the end of Vacation. · "Well, vacation was like that too. Remember, at the end, Clark Chris, like he kidnaps people."
[speaker] Bill Simmons · latest sketch, The Rewatchables · ‘Friday the 13th’ · Loves the Friday series as a communal, rental-era memory and tells childhood stories about the ads and theaters. Likes casting what-ifs and sports analogies for everything. Skeptical of horror at Christmas and of anything that wastes the premise. · stances: Friday the 13th is not the best entry but the origin story had to be told; Friday 2 is a leap over the original
[speaker] Sean Fennessey · latest sketch, The Big Picture · ‘Resident Evil’ Absolutely Rips! · Loves gory, funny, fast genre movies with craft and confidence, especially 87-minute films that never overstay. Can't stand ponderous elevated horror that fills out its runtime with introspection and sad family history. A sucker for the Carpenter-era lineage, Die Hard homages, and directors who break studio dogma. · stances: Resident Evil is one of the best films of the year; Horror movies have become a drag; fun genre experiences are needed; Short running times are a virtue; Video-game films work best when great filmmakers get creative license
[bits] The Big Picture: Drafts (Hosts and guests draft films in rounds; every pick is a recommendation with an argument); Hall of Fame (A star's or director's best, ranked and argued); Countdowns (Ranked lists, top five or top ten)
[bits] Blank Check: The box office game (Guessing the film's opening weekend and what it was up against); The sung theme ("Blank Check with Griffin and David", sung; the transcriber garbles it)
[bits] The Rewatchables: Apex Mountain (The moment a star peaks; where on the mountain a performance sits); Who Won the Movie (The hosts name the person who came out of the film best off); The Ebert review (Roger Ebert's original review and star rating read aloud. Ebert is cited, never on the show); Casting what-ifs (Who was almost cast, or who should have been); Most rewatchable scene (The scene each host would stop on while flipping channels); Aged best / aged worst (What holds up and what does not); Picking Nits (The little things in a film the hosts love that they don't think totally work: the nits); Double feature (The film each host would pair it with; a programming pick)

Recommend three to six films, and only films that appear in these lines. A series, a TV film, or a franchise counts too when a line recommends it or pairs it with Analyze This (1999); name it the way the line names it. Don't recommend Analyze This (1999) itself. For each one, give one short reason in your own words and say whose reason it is: the show, named exactly as the brackets name it, and the speaker when the line names one (an "unknown" speaker is just the show). If the lines are thin, say so plainly rather than stretching them.

Keep a contrast a contrast. When a line sets two films apart, the reason is how they differ; never turn it into a way they're alike. A line with ⇒ puts the source first and what drew on it second, and one marked "the maker said so" is still the host reporting it: say who said it, and never state an influence as fact.

You know only what's on these lines. Add no fact they don't state: not who directed a film, not what kind of film it is, not when it came out, unless a line says so. Say nothing about the store or how anything rents here.

Talk the way a clerk talks to a customer at the counter: plain text, titles written plainly with no asterisks or other markup, no headings, no lists of more than six, no JSON.
