    We've all been the theaters and we're sitting in the dark looking at the trailers and one comes up that's so fucking aweful you have to has why this got green lit. My idea for a segment is Shitty Trailers where you can review a 2 minute trailer and just tear it to pieces and just ponder how the film was made...new films, underground films, old films. Its nice that you can take your pick from the world of cinema.

    A Troma Classic.

    Here's brify synopsis, courtesy of Wikiepedia:

     

    he film follows Detective Harry Griswold, a clumsy New York cop investigating a string of murders involving kabuki actors. While attending a Kabuki play, Harry witnesses mobsters gun down the entire cast. In the ensuing gunfight, Harry is forcefully kissed by one of the dying actors, unknowingly becoming blessed with the powers of Kabuki. Before he knows it, Griswold finds out that he has the ability to transform into Kabukiman, a colorfully-dressed slapstick superhero who has the ability to fly and access to such unique weapons as heat seeking chopsticks and fatal sushi. With the assistance of the beautiful Lotus, the two help clean up the crime-ridden streets of New York and try to stop a maniacal businessman and his lackeys who plan to fulfill an ancient evil prophecy that will summon demonic powers and enslave the world.

    Tom Green seems like an all around cool guy; funny in his day and was then given the green light from 20th Century Fox to give them a comedy hit. The result... Freddy Got Fingered. Rogert Ebert said it best about Freddy Got Fingered: "This movie doesn't scrape the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't the bottom of the barrel. This movie isn't below the bottom of the barrel. This movie doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence with barrels...The day may come when Freddy Got Fingered is seen as a milestone of neo-surrealism. The day may never come when it is seen as funny."

    Green has dreams of his own TV Show and heads to Hollywood. Hilarity(?) ensues for 90 minutes. It's considered one of the worse in the 2000s. Seems like a good bad film to get reviewed on How Did This Get Made. If Tom Green can be the special guest, it might be the greatest podcast ever.

    How about 'I Feel Sorry For..."
    Of these films there's usually a good actor or actress that's cast in these films that you go 'the hell is this respected actor/actress doing in this film?'; example: Mark Wahlburg in 'We Own the Night'. The man's an Academy nominated actor and he's in a piece of shit film such as that. Or a good comedic role wasted in a film.

    Something of that nature.

    I'm down for any guest, be it a comedian, actor, musician....hell, could be one of the guys dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow that used to harass people in front the Graumans, as long as the guest brings something to the show. As for comedians go, I'd love to hear from some UCB guys like Matt Besser or Ian Walsh. Perhaps Doug Benson or Duncan Trussell and Natasha Leggero (as a duo!). Any local musician or a band that's coming through town would be cool.

    With the whole gluttony of films based on comic book characters, we've had some good (The Dark Knight), some decent (Captain America) and then downright shitty, like Green Lantern which was reviewed here. But I think How Did This Get Made should go back in the annals of early comic book films and dust off the 1996 Classic (?) BARB WIRE, starring Pamela Anderson Lee. Witness an acting tour de force by Lee as this re-imagining of Casablanca drones out for about a 100 minutes.

    Just don't call her babe!

    Wow, I'm so glad I haven't seen this movie...then again I paid to see Mac & Me when I was a kid.
    Another great episode. Having Matt Walsh as the guest made it even better.

    To answer member James' query.... yes, Jarome Ignlia is indeed black. Not only an MVP to his name, but 2 Olympic Gold Medals and being the first black hockey captain. There's been plenty of black hockey players... HOFer Edmonton Oilers goalie Grant Fuhr, Eldon 'Pokey' Reddick, Mike Grier, Nigel Dawes and so forth.

    This is been your Black Hockey Player Ice Moment.

    Look forward to more schlocky movie goodness!
