    This 1996 film directed by James Foley (Glengarry Glen Ross) and starring Reese Witherspoon and Mark Wahlberg is an underrated terrible movie. It's also a thoroughly enjoyable watch with the standout scene containing what a friend of mine affectionately refers to as "RCFF." This blog post says it all if you need more convincing. http://coloradosmovieblog.blogspot.com/2008/12/roller-coaster-of-love.html?zx=d1a5e3ab5cf1e98a

    Loved the movie, loved the episode. As for the incinerator Vanity was tortured in, it appears to a brickyard facility, so it was an industrial kiln used to cure clay into bricks. So... 1: the temperature dial would not go by 100's as bricks are fired 1200 Celsius, roughly 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. 2: the human body shuts down at about 250 degree and at 700, she would be on fire, the metal table would be glowing red as would the cuffs holding her down And, probably the most baffling 3: why would someone install a two-way intercom in an oven?

    I think something needs to be said for how progressive Cliff's performance is, considering the context of when this movie was made. He's an Asian-American supporting character from the 80's that doesn't speak with an embarrassing accent or make offensive Asian metaphors. The fact that he's Asian-American isn't even referenced, which seems pretty much unthought of back then. Granted, he's a genius inventor, which could be considered a stereotype, but at least it's not an offensive one, which was a rarity.

    I want to do a podcast all about pogs. But it is NOT ALLOWED to be called a Pogcast.

    This movie was on, muted, when I was getting a manicure and even with no sound, I teared up a bit. I tried really hard not to look at the screen.

    They also started a thread about how unattractive Stanwyck is, for what its worth. But yea... the 'baby's are awesome. One key to understanding the best noir... is it's funny as hell. That's how I take the 'baby's. It is a simple character trait and has its purpose for sure, but it's also REALLY funny. Besides that, it's a cheap connection between two basically strangers to fake intimacy. I think it should be clear here, in this movie especially, that every word and line is intentional. It's there for a reason. Anyway, I had not seen Double Indemnity before and I LOVED it. Everything. As a Coen Brothers diehard, I felt like I was watching their favorite movie. The dry humor, the incredible dialogue, the cool plot, the femme fatale, all of it. I probably could trace something in every Coen movie back to this film. As a viewer, I felt like I'd been perfectly trained for a noir like this because of them. Paul at the end mentioned that next week's Singin' In The Rain is a good companion for Double Indemnity, but I actually think All About Eve was a great pair for it. (Maybe all three are a good menage a trois?) The dialogue, deep allusions, rewatchability, questionable motives, just the vaguely pulpy fun. And while I was slower to get my head around Eve than this one, seeing these two really made me glad I'm doing this endeavor in catching up on film history.

    @Sam. please don't fall into the trap of feeling like you need to talk more to prove you're better than the other engineers. This is a ploy Sean and Hayes use to make sure they're the only ones that come off as likable. You're already the only good one left.

    William Petersen can't escape this podcast. Either for this, The Skulls or MullHolland Falls.

    BUMP! They need to do this movie. I saw it in the theater with my then-girlfriend and her friends and I guess one of their friends' moms [or something?]. Even then at the age of fifteen, I knew it was TERRIBLE!

    I have a feeling that they're not going to do this movie. They passed on doing The Happening and have ignored Dreamcatcher, both of which feature a Wahlberg. I think Paul is in the pocket of big Wahlburger.

    I joined just to reccomend this movie. We used to watch in repeatedly in college and laugh at so much of it. There are some of the worst editing mistakes I've ever seen in a movie. When Grisham hangs up the phone angrily, it cuts to a different take, mid-slam and the cord is across his body where it wasn't before. And, of course, Nicole 4 eva!!!! Check this one out. I remember it being so bad it was good but that was when I was 20. It might now be anywhere near as much material to pull apart like Birdemic or Pluto Nash but I remember thinking it was hilariously terrible.

    I don't really know enough about any of them to make a big decision like this. I could really only answer confidently if I'd spent time living with them, so maybe a better question for me is FMK my mom, my dad, and my brother. F my brother, obviously, 'cuz he's very attractive (and married which only makes it hotter lol I'm so bad), M my mom 'cuz she's a giving person and I can tell she cares about me a lot, K my dad because he has a bit of an attitude problem.

    God bless girlfriends though. They always think you and their dad are a match made in heaven. "Please don't make me have to do this." "I dunno why you're being like this, my parents love you." "No, your mom just grudginly accepts me and your dad hates me." "Why would my dad hate you?" "Well...you know...<a couple hip thrusts>" "Haha, my dad is not thinking about that..." "What?! He totally is!"

    Plus you get to see Alyssa Milano in one of the few theatrical appearances she did post-"Who's the Boss" and pre-"Charmed", as well as William Petersen pre-"CSI" and Amy Brenneman pre-"Judging Amy".

    For some reason, my parents took me to see Fear in theaters when it came out. At 10 years old, I was way too young, so it was instantly my favorite movie. It look me a long time to realize just how awful it technically is, but it's a gloriously fun watch, and I'd kill to hear the HDTGM crew rip it apart.
