  1. I’ve recently found myself re-listening to the Ultraviolet episode (#175 if you would too), and so many things stick out to me as memorable and enjoyable; the repeated use of the term “hemophages”, the hosts’ repeated confusion at what was going on, the Blood Chinois, etc. One of the big ones being the Doughboys tangent about Josh Gad fucking Qbert in the “Pixels” post-credits scene.

    So… I may have listened to this episode at least 4 times this week. And then, I found this in a local thrift shop today. Something told me, I had to have it.

  2. I was psyched when this movie ended because I knew it had to be talked about. I was definitely laughing way too loud at a few points, because of just how much everything didn't work. That girl who played a young Eva Mendez's character has probably the most poorly delivered monologue of all time. Oh, and the old-timey accent of the new police recruit? Whenever she came into a scene, I was like, "Oooh it's her!" Guess I'm the only one who enjoyed it (and I own it too)! Maybe because it's like a cartoon: no one feels pain, everyone talks in a funny or strange way, deaths around every corner that no one cares about. Actually, cartoons usually have characters get sad when someone dies. But otherwise, "The Spirit" is a huge pile of nonsense.

  3. Favorite parts:

     

    - The uplifting speech Jackie Chan gives to the motocross gang after he destroys 80% of them, in which he says everyone thinks they're scum.

    - They show blood in two separate scenes when a person gets shot in the leg in order to get information, but a man gets thrown into a wood chipper and there's no blood at all!

    - THE ENGLISH-SPEAKING CHARACTERS ARE STILL DUBBED IN ENGLISH, GUYS

    - Apparently everyone who works in the market leaves for lunch and the Reservoir Dog mob attaches chains from every support and pylon in the market to a single tow truck in the span of 2 minutes.

    - The cops never say the leader of the gang is called the White Tiger, but Jackie inherently knows it and says it.

    - The hovercraft driver giving the mobster with a gun on him a real "yeesh" look when his life is so in danger.

    - YOU CAN REPAIR A HOVERCRAFT WITH DUCT TAPE????

    - THE COPS LET JACKIE CHAN DRIVE THE HOVERCRAFT ONTO A GOLF COURSE TO RUN OVER THE WHITE TIGER LEADER GUY

     

    Please do an episode on this movie!


  4. Bringing this back to the top!

     

    I do like parts of this movie very much, but there's so many things that would really make you say "bonkers" over and over again. I can't tell if I like Orlando Bloom's American accent or not, or if it's even good. There are weird nonsequiters and some CRAAAAAZY editing. Please do this movie. It's like Timothy Green except there's no magic or trees, just a sappy love story.

  5. It doesn't take itself too seriously...

     

    It's funny you say that, because I think it takes itself WAY too seriously. It's the most serious movie and it's topic is Abraham Lincoln killing vampires. I enjoyed it, but I thought that overall it was way too dramatic. Not to mention all the crazy action scenes. I think Mary Elizabeth Winstead does a wonderful job as Mary Todd Lincoln.


  6.  

    Hey wait, wasn't this a Marino line?

     

    Nope, I'm sure it's all Mantzoukas. I listen to this episode regularly, it has so many quotable lines! Ken Marino starts the conversation about that part of the movie, but then Jason takes it into his whole "That's where I started jerking off" and then drops this comedy nugget.


  7. Bad movie doesn't mean unenjoyable movie. Paul, June, and Jason have enjoyed some of the movies they've talked about. I think the point of the show is to showcase the bad, but still watchable movies. Or in the very least movies you can talk over with friends making catty comments.

    This movie is that and more!


  8. I would have to disagree. I think this movie is perfect. It's really enjoyable to watch, I found myself laughing out loud at many parts. And, though the plot and characters themselves are tiresome, the action scenes are awesome! Everything is ultra-stylized and over-the-top like the game. There are definitely a lot of WTF moments, in fact the whole movie is a WTF moment! But this movie is perfect material for the podcast. I highly recommend it, and get it on Blu-ray!


  9. I searched the forums as best I could, and did not find this movie suggested. So please don't kill me if someone already did.

     

    There was Jason Statham, and before him came Sylvester Stallone. But, somewhere in the middle, Vin Diesel reigned supreme as the must-have action star. I know you guys have done Fast Five, but I think he deserves to have the rest of his work investigated. Starting with "XXX". For those unaware, he plays a criminal/extreme sports fanatic who, because he commits crimes, is recruited by the NSA to take down a Russian crime organization called Anarchy 99. This film is "great" for many reasons, my favorites being the fully Nu Metal soundtrack and how they work in extreme sports into every action scene in the film. Definitely HDTGM-worthy!
