This was an idea that was raised in the Drop Dead Fred thread, but I thought it was a topic that merited it’s own thread. What is the film(s) that the show has covered that you not only unapologetically love, but also hated hearing Paul, Jason and/or June say negative things about it? For me, the only two that come to mind are A View to a Kill - I don’t really think any Bond film belongs on a show like this and it felt like they only did it to do the crossover with the James Bond podcast hosts. And if you are going to do a Bond film, I feel there are worse films in the franchise that they could have chosen instead. Jingle All the Way - This is one that my family makes a point of watching every Christmas and while it’s not a good movie, there are a lot of lines from it that we quote from it all the time.

I dont think this has been posted yet (it was mentioned in a few other threads, but the title being made of small common words makes it hard to search for) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8h6pXPHaWM0 So I just watched the trailer for the first time, and it makes it sound like its trying to be a girly Ferris Beauler's Day Off, and it is so very much not. For starters: there is actually a very small amount of "girls having fun" in it. Secondly: fun isn't even remotely the point, nor is being rebellious, its all about a dance contest. A contest with seemingly no rules or organization, where you can turn up with your own dance partner or not and its still apparently random who you'll dance with (which is how our 2 heroes are brought together), or maybe bring a couple of partners (in the case of "paul rust and the miss cleos"), whatever. underage? they couldn't give a shit. This is a dance contest to be on a dancing TV show. A dancing TV show which brings you the latest in dancing news...DAILY. Its a daily show, its on every freakin day (mon-sat at least, no mention of a Sunday show, but I can only assume its there). So in essence this movie boils down to a couple things, bottomlessly terrible and incredibly flamboyant dance numbers/training montages, and stupid interactions of the characters as they form relationships and rivalries seemingly at random. Also, stupid clothes. Basically everything Helen Hunt wears is seemingly picked at random by going blind into a thrift store and anything she touches she puts on her body somehow (whether its clothes or not). From her giant yellow shirt with no back and giant toy grasshopper stuck on her head combo, to her furtrapping clown ensemble Not to mention her troll hair, velcro reversible schoolgirl skirt, and other things. And shes not the only fashion disaster (this is a dance movie after all, so theres plenty of goofy costumes) Just some random things this movie has: gymnastic nun, baby pizza, gay circus party crashers, peeping on naked siblings, offensive stereotypes, dance rape ala crossroads, SJP seemingly needing a pee in every scene, so many montages, torching a dog, and neon pink credits. I believe its on netflix instant (according to some site which lists those, but I dont have it to check), its also on Amazon instant but not on the prime (it is on youtube in full though), or you can pick it up at Cannes in the Helen Hunt movie section. (and i'll admit, i cheated and watched with a rifftrax - http://www.rifftrax....ack-productions )

Too bad you weren’t born a raccoon with naturally fabulous smokey eyes. @Elektra Boogaloo @taylorannephoto speaking of raccoon eyes...

I cannot make up because I'm a possum impersonating a human woman but I love make up and other people's abilities to use it. I'm very much on board for a How Did This Get Made Up segment on Wig Talk

The Boys give JACKIE JOHNSON from the podcast Natch Beaut a makeover challenge.

I just started looking through a list of films that fall into this criteria and I think the hardest thing is more so defining "genuinely like." For example, Warcraft falls into this. Now I didn't like a lot of the movie but I genuinely enjoyed the stuff with the Orcs. I thought that half of the film was enjoyable and well done while the rest was a bit of a slog. Would I watch the movie again? Probably not. Would I say I genuinely like it though? I don't know. I wouldn't say I hated it but I wouldn't defend it if somebody was talking shit about it. It's a firm "fine" does that relate to genuinely like though? Cowboys & Aliens also falls into this. They were movie that were fine but I care nothing about. I guess that's genuinely liking it then is it? So based on that here are the movies I would say I enjoyed (not it a so bad it's good way which eliminates a lot) that match this criteria: Redline, Super, MacGruber, Pandorum, Open Windows, Cooties, Deadgirl, Friday the 13th, Hot Rod, Reno 911: Maimi Beach, Saw, Eight Legged Freaks, Jackass The Movie, Wet Hot American Summer, and I'm sure some others I just missed. So that's a lot of things I was a fan of, comedies which are highly subjective and horror movies which generally don't get reviewed as well and are more niche. Can't say I'm all too surprised.

oh my gosh, sean bringing back "the vibe is immediate," and the pause beforehand when he's deciding whether or not to say it was the hardest i've laughed in a while.

I'm saving the listen for my drive to work, but according to my google images search the guest is an actual woman. (Edit: Whoa, imagine my surprise when I start the ep. and they retroactively shame me for referencing gender.)

This could have been botched so easily. Glad he wasn’t around. Great show. 8 thumbs

JESSE FARRAR asks The Boys for advice on how to get his big break.

My guy is sick, but he’s being brave about it.

You must want me to come over there and smuck the name of my favorite grape jelly out of your mouth

Knuck if you smuck

I would say Demolition Man. I think it's a legitimately entertaining film, and a lot of its satirical and comedic stuff lands pretty well. The central idea of the violent angry male archetypes 9f yesterday being a shock to the system of future society has pretty much come true.

Smuckers all day

Sean and Hayes roasted me on The Wokest, now I'm scared to listen to this ep in case I don't get any air time!

I have three obsessions at this time in my life: Cyberpunk 2077, UFOs, and Hollywood Handbook. I'm struggling to find the connective tissue between them.

What a...corker?

Your Kickstarter Sucks, but This Episode Rocks.

Glad this has finally been made public. It’s for the greater good. Warts and all.

JULIE KLAUSNER fills in as co-host after the Boys get into a big fight. Also as this is an official thread, I have decided to make the official announcement. For episode 300 they are flying the hosts of The Official The Orville Podcast out to LA and putting them up in a beautiful star hotel. Be sure to send in some popcorn gallery questions for Miranda and the Crew

Do a big wish today

we're off to see the wizard

Popcorn Galerie Questions for Orville: * When you worked in that bicycle shop, what was the most annoying thing that Wilbur did before he invented the airplane? * How did you create popcorn when corn was already a thing? When you tried to call them "Hot Redenbachers" and it didn't take off, did you ever think about throwing in the towel? What's with the bow tie and suspenders? (JULIE KLAUSNER JUST SAID POPCORN GALLERY INTO THE PODCAST!)
