Tucker & Dale vs. Evil (2010)
thestray replied to chunkytehgooch's topic in Bad Movie Recommendations
I went and watched this immediately after reading this thread, just finished, good movie! It had actually been sitting in my queue for a long time now and never got around to it, glad it was brought up here. There's absolutely no reason for this to be featured on the podcast. -
Just got the soundtrack. "bikers by day! ninjas by night! steal all ya cocaine, along with your life!"

"He had a face and a half."

Totally. That was one of the parts that was really enhanced by the live show because they kept focusing on PFT who would just be looking around, then cut to Rob Corddry watching PFT and cracking up.
-
That's exactly what he's doing. I agree with Syme, I watched the live broadcast on youtube, and PFT's mannerisms were very fun to watch.
-
Fair enough. Everybody should watch this movie.

This is one of my favorite zombie movies. I had it on vhs when I was in highschool and watched it all the time because it had zombies, a really hot naked chick, and some really bizarre moments that I found hilarious. I rented it thinking it was going to be a straight forward horror movie but it just gets progressively weirder and surreal. Movies like this kinda make me miss the days of renting movies with not much to go on besides the front and back of the cover. I feel like it's rare now to go into a movie with no idea what to expect. I like this movie, I think it's a good movie, but I think there's enough crazy for them to talk about in an episode. If nothing else though I just want to recommend it to people who haven't seen it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tS-GpYY6f2o

CONGRATULATIONS MATT AND DANIELLE!
thestray replied to daveB from Oakland's topic in improv4humans with Matt Besser
Humorless evangelical Christian CEO of an oil company... who's spokesperson is Tim Tebow. Congrats Matt and Danielle. From his stories Matt sounds like he had a great dad, so I'm sure he'll probably be one as well. -
I think it would've been a lot better if they went a step further and made them feel like real people, even if some of them are really awful real people. I also don't think Refn quite has a handle on telling a story with minimal dialog, there were lots of moments of people staring blankly that didn't seem to really be conveying anything. In Drive Gosling came off as a stoic Man With No Name type of person, but in this movie I don't know what the hell was going on with him, he seemed like he had some developmental issues or something.

Goddam, not only is that racially offensive, but it's musically offensive. Could not finish it. -
Saying it shamelessly borrowed fighter pilots, being struck by lightning, and intelligent robotic beings is a bit of stretch. It wasn't a good movie, but I didn't find it to be horrible either, it was an adequate time-waster. I don't know if there's enough to make a good HDTGM episode.

I finally watched this. It's very cool visually and there are some nice sequences, and it's very close to being a good movie, but it's more style than substance. It's more preoccupied with being artsy than it is with telling a good story or offering up an interesting fully-formed relatable character. There were definitely some moments that made me laugh, and a few that made me go "The fuck?"

She wasn't even adequate as Emma Frost in my opinion. I wouldn't even say she pulled off being an "ice queen", so much as she just pulled off being a boring lady. Emma's a really strong character, very confident, bold, assertive, morally ambiguous. But I felt like when they cast her they were like "Who's a hot blonde? Watching the movie I definitely didn't get any sense that she was the character I read in comics. It'd be cool if they bring him back. But watching him die was definitely an eyeroll worthy "Of course" moment.

This would make for a great episode, it's a weird but enjoyable movie. Whether one considers it a good film or not, you can't deny that the Zouks reacting to hordes of dirty naked old men would be HDTGM gold.

Like I said I love this movie, but I still think there's a bunch to talk about. Every now and then HDTGM does some movies that are actually good/fun.
-
I thought it was a fairly entertaining movie. January Jones was definitely the worse part of it, even if you don't mind her shitty acting, she just didn't fit the character she was playing at all, but I guess that's also the writer's fault. The way they kinda half-ass rebooted it was really weird and confusing too. Also, they killed the fucking black guy. Who barely got to really do anything. Boo. But Magneto hunting down Nazis was cool (I wish that had been the whole movie). And there were some great action sequences.
-
I actually like Leguizamo quite a bit, he's an underrated actor. Him as Clown was probably the best part of the movie. There was just not much to gain in my mind from eating real maggots.
-
I've never seen it but I have a friend who absolutely loves it. I'm almost afraid to watch it and realize my friend is batshit insane.
-
I remember seeing one of those HBO inside the movie type things where Leguizamo said he actually ate the maggots or cockroaches (I don't remember which) that were on the pizza. I don't know why he thought that was necessary, but I admire his commitment... kinda.

Episode 92 β Dead Manβs Rock
thestray replied to JulyDiaz's topic in improv4humans with Matt Besser
Man, this is like the 3rd or 4th time in a row that my comment starts a new page in the Earwolf forums. Weird coincidence. -
Episode 92 β Dead Manβs Rock
thestray replied to JulyDiaz's topic in improv4humans with Matt Besser
I think if you want to have an ethics debate about whether bestiality is wrong or not, "these other things are done to animals" shouldn't be part of the argument, because you don't prove that something is right by contrasting it to things that are worse. If you want to make the case that bestiality is acceptable you have to do it on it's own merits or you don't really have a good argument. -
Was it weird? I thought it was hilarious. I've never watched Boardwalk Empire but I was in tears.

Malcom McDowell is just one of those guys who while being well respected also probably doesn't have people beating down his door to offer him big roles or anything. He's less of a movie star and more of a guy just doing the work where he can get it and does his best, whether it be a really good role in a film or as a bad guy on a Monk episode or something.

When I was in college my friend had this dvd that he got from another friend called National Lampoon's Lost Reality. The conceit of the dvd is that it was supposed to be a bunch of reality tv show pilots that never got picked up, because they were too crazy or offensive. The Amazing Racist was one of them, Ari Shaffir is his real name, and he's a piece of shit in my opinion. A lot of the stuff on the dvd was pretty dumb, but this movie looks even worse, I'd have to be paid to watch this.

Yeesh. I don't understand why grown adult people think it's fair game to be like "Hur hur! THIS PERSON IS UGLY!"
