Had the exact same thought. Also, "a barren desert of whiteness", sounds like Scottsdale, AZ.

Why was Christopher Plummer kind of transparent at the end on his Pittsburgh Steelers Subaru throne? I thought he was going to be a hologram again, but then he wasn't? I dunno. Maybe it's just me, but 97% of the costumes in this movie really drew the eye to the crotch. I wish Stella'd worn the red and silver number with the cape more, it was a good look. I really liked the mini glass spaceship they took to the Amazon planet. Throw some succulents, some cushions and pillows, a stack of books, and a big fuzzy blanket in there and I'd be set for life.

I'm on the fence about this one. It feels like I've been hearing about it forever, and the security and news coverage almost daring people to commit acts of violence, add in some middling reviews from people whose opinions I trust, and the one-millionth fucking time we have to watch Batman's parents get murdered. But, those same reviews praise JP's performance, so, fence.

The Visitor is fantastic. It's like nine good movies thrown into a bingo hopper.

100% agree.

True, though stranger things have happened, I'll still put my hopes out into the universe! It would be amazing!

Body Double is great save for the music video in the middle.

Yeah, as much as it pains the child in me to admit, this one's not great. Great designs though. Bluth's movies are pretty fifty-fifty for me in terms of good/bad, but they're all pretty fucking weird.

I believe that same article talked about Night Trap, I remember really wanting to play both Clock Tower and Night Trap because of it. The licensing for Clock Tower is up in the air last I checked, so hopefully someday it gets the same rerelease treatment that Night Trap has.

I downloaded that a few years back actually, haha. I'd remembered hearing about it before (Nintendo Power maybe? Some kind of game magazine article talking about controversial games) and falsely thinking I'd already played it, when in reality it was just a mixture of the movie, the PS1 sequel (which I did play), and my general scatterbrainedness. The giant baby put a smile on my face for weeks! You're maybe the fourth person I've ever heard talk about it.

The caller did say a deep cut... Nah, it's just one of my favorite movies and I enjoy gluing things onto myself for Halloween. I did Jordy Verrill from Creepshow for a number of years (I still find bits of craft moss in the house), and I had an Upson Pratt full roach costume in the works until my Halloween plans kind of dried up. So I'd be the one covered in fake flies.

Disclosure is also currently available on HBO. I've never been part of a couple's Halloween costume, but I've long thought that going as Jennifer and Frau Brückner's son from Dario Argento's Phenomena would be cute.

I mean not once they're transformed, it's the bit where they're first starting and maybe the eyes are a different color, or the men have scruffier faces (there aren't that many female werewolves on film now that I think about it), the clothing is ripped or coming off. Like that's the good stuff. MP just looked terrible in this movie. Which, maybe that' a good thing, but I didn't like it. The child actor was pretty good too. It drove me nuts at the beginning when neither of them petted the dog while saying goodnight.

But see, I'd argue at least a lot of 80s male werewolves looked hot pre-mid transformation. Not here. Not here. The effects post-transformation were alright, but the use of CGI was a mistake.

Wow, this movie. Hated the werewolf gaslighting another character about the werewolf's werewolfism. Like nah, wolfie, you knew you were a werewolf, you knew you were a danger. Also hated the inept fucking police and the terrible CGI. LOVED the dog actor. What a good boy (RIP). Would pet, belly rub, and give kisses to.

That sounds rad. Which games? I don't remember much from Unforgettable, but I do recall it not being as crazy as I'd hoped it would be.

Echoing the same sentiments. Though my weird issue is, while the puppets are beautiful, I've only ever seen bits of the movie because I have a negative visceral reaction to it. Still images from it, I'm fine, but in motion, it bothers me so much I turn it off. This doesn't happen for other puppet movies/shows of the time, or past or present, I can't explain it. Still, I appreciate its existence and I'm glad new audiences are being turned onto it via the series.

Hmm, it's been a while since I watched this one, and I only watched it for my shameful crush on Johnny Knoxville (¯\_(ツ)_/¯), so I'm not sure if it's HDTGM worthy. I mean it is bad, don't get me wrong, I just can't remember a whole lot about it, it very well might be. I do believe it's another one of those movies where the writer(s) have no real concept of death and what it entails. Harry Connick Jr. is a hitman who's never killed before, SJP is super trigger happy. It's a mess. Here's a trailer for those interested:

Jesus Christ. They made that child say, "I'm not a little girl anymore." BARF. Also, the non-predator characters came off super creepy too. Also, the advice they gave fifty times didn't even work because she was quickly overpowered. Also, that dinosaur design is just a straight-up ripoff of Woodstock. Good Lord.

Oh, I just realized, I think that tagline about love needing to be blind was supposed to be a play on Paris' hit song at the time "Stars Are Blind". Thanks, brain, for retaining that nugget of pointless information but forgetting basic math!

I wouldn't have put it past them to just have a black guy dressed in western wear come out. (un)Fun fact, A Chocolate Cowboy is the name of a terrible blackface movie from the 20s. I did sign spinning for a few weeks, first dressed as Santa and then as a clown. Passersby were very vocally supportive of Santa; honking, yelling/wooing out car windows, high fives. Save for one elderly lady who waved to get my attention and then gave me the finger, and one dirtbag that catcalled me. As the clown, people screamed insults at me, lotsa middle fingers, and someone gave me a Big Gulp driveby. I wonder how a mime costume would have fared. I don't remember having a crush on anyone in elementary school. What crushes I did have were either on actors, singers, musicians, or cartoon characters. I do remember a couple of kids "dating" in sixth grade and kissing, and I thought it was gross.

Oh boy, watching and then listening to the podcast, the bit about having the stalker websites dedicated to Paris Hilton's character reminded me of Amy Boyer. She was cyber stalked and then murdered by an unrequited crush who had websites dedicated to her and how he was going to kill her. I remember reading about her murder in Teen People in 2000ish; the article basically ended with the suggestion that the readers look themselves up to make sure no one was fixated on them.

This semi trashy famous people aughts nostalgia is making me miss The Soup. I think it's Super Smash Bros. Melee. The main guy reminded me a lot of Shaggy from Scooby-Doo.

I really like this one. It's very bad, but it's also charming? It's a shame they ended it trying to set up a sequel, but I get why they did (XXX, Riddick, F&F).

Isn't that what stickers, pins, and/or patches are for?
