  1. For whatever reason the TV was on ABC Family (my wife was probably watching a Harry Potter movie) and this movie was on. This is definitely in the bad comedies realm that would work for HDTGM. There's a scene where she gets her hair caught in the intake of a hairdryer so she throws it into the tub, while it's still running and turns the water on. This movie is bizz-onkers.

  2. Oh I got ya, you meant production limbo was the sign of a poor quality product, which is usually right.

     

    And with that said, is anyone else a little surprised that they didn't push RIPD back to september instead of releasing it in the middle of the summer, right up against another Ryan Reynolds movie?


  3. As for "World War Z," I don't think anyone saw that one coming.

     

    I don't think it was so surprising. Zombieland did well at the box office a couple of years ago, The Walking Dead is one of the most watched shows on TV, Brad Pitt has a good track record and the book was pretty good.

  4. Did anyone watch this as a sequel to Home Alone? Mr. McCallister is a broken man. Mrs. McCallister left him for a younger man, none of his kids will talk to him except for Kevin, who lives in the guest house. Kevin has been unable to move on with his life, haunted by his demons of being hunted by two creepy burglars and having had to fend for himself, not once, but twice. One day while Mr. McCallister is drinking at his favorite bar, far away from his house a shark hurricane hits, leaving Kevin stranded at home to fend for himself.

  5. That review makes this sound like a HTDGM must.

     

    I like this one too:

    "Every movie coming out this year but “R.I.P.D.” should pause for a big sigh of relief: The possibility of any of them being called the worst cinematic effort of 2013 has, as of today, just about disappeared. As for “R.I.P.D.,” I’ve got some bad news for you..."

    I really think it's June that sets this show apart. Jason and Paul are AMAZING but we have a lot of podcasts, shows, etc...that mock movies. To me, having someone as earnest as June, who seems to work really hard to find beauty and joy in these things, is what is special. It's so easy to be critical of any art now, so much so that it has turned into a genre, but HDTGM (with a big hand from June) seems to work pretty hard at balancing that while finding fun in all of it. I really dig that.

     

    Art?
