  1. I knew it just because people told me, not from seeing him in any movies. I was 8 years old when he was elected! This was so they could keep the Junior Class holed up in the auditorium so they couldn't run the bell system while Seniors got a day off and Sophomores and Freshmen took their state test, which when I think about it, sounds like the setup for a great 80's Comedy.
  2. I just want to point out that once during an testing day, my High School's Administration showed non-testers National Treasure 2. This is what our education system is trying to convince us is entertainment.
  3. Anyone who suggests this movie is not allowed in my bouncy castle. (I have a bouncy castle in my backyard*). 12/10 genius, as expected from Herzog and The Cage. It is exactly as crazy as it was intended to be. Which reminds me, I need to subject myself to Jack Reacher at some point, because Herzog. *Disclaimer: I may or may not have a bouncy castle in my backyard. Is it worth the view? I'm actually shocked that Cage could produce something good. Of course, I'm of the generation whose first experience with Nicolas Cage is National Treasure. I know him as crap-master, not Oscar-winning crap-master

    Crossroads

    I feel the need to point out that Taryn Manning is now on 'Orange Is The New Black', and that her hyper-Christian, anti-Abortion character could very well be a continuation of Mimi in Crossroads.
  5. I really can't answer this question honestly without leaving tons of movies out, so I'm just picking the 5 that need more traction than they currently get. Town & Country- I have no idea why I am so obsessed with this movie. This movie even fails at being a bad movie. It's just...LOOK AT IT! Our protagonist is a man who cheat on his wife and we are supposed to root for him? Editing so horrible that you'd swear that they just followed the cast around to get this movie to 104 minutes? Warren Beatty-Goldie Hawn Sex? And the Pièce de résistance, that this all cost $100 Million to make? I just want someone to validate my insanity. Also, part of me just wants to dare them to do this film because it just seems boring on the outset, but I want them to go insane. The Scarlet Letter- This. Movie. Is. Bonkers. The sex and morals and puritan life and slave girl and nude Demi Moore and Gary Oldman's ass and Robert Duvall's batshit insane performance. Even if it DIDN'T shit all over the grave of Nathaniel Hawthorne, it still would be a lovable mess Mr. Wrong- This is probably the first movie where I felt upset about what was happening on screen. Nothing makes sense, Ellen Degeneres is playing the exact opposite of her persona, everyone in this movie is the fucking worst people who ever lived, and I've heard that Ellen makes fun of this routinely, so that would make for an amazing episode if she got on. The Forgotten- Best Worst Movie that nobody has ever heard of. Julianne Moore's child goes missing, government and husband try to convince her that the son never existed, without any clues whatsoever, she figured out the insane twist of the movie, and goes to battle said twist in a Hallmark Mystery movie gone horribly wrong. Milk Money- I really want to know who signed off on this premise. 3 Middle-School aged boys head into the big city to find a prostitute to take her top off, Prostitute drops kids off at home, falls in love with the kids dad. HOW IS THAT A LEGIT FILM PREMISE? Add 99 minutes worth of Double Entendres and the citizens of Whitest Town Ever, U.S.A. acting shocked at Melanie Griffith for no reason, and you have an episode. Honorable Mentions: The Hand That Rocks The Cradle, Swept Away, Jaws 3-D, Congo, Alone In The Dark, Basic Instinct 2, Body Of Evidence, Obsessed, Premonition, Taken 2, The Avengers 1998, Turbulence, Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2, Poltergeist II: The Other Side, The Last Song, Glitter, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, Rhinestone, The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure, Practical Magic, Xanadu, Crossroads

  7. I love that it ends with dulcet tones, because Jason is right. I am stressed as shit every time I listen to this show. But here's my question, were those real lions? Because the gang was talking about them as if they were starved to death lions, but I genuinely thought they were just horrible animatronics.
  8. June may have been on to something about her shock over Paul Hogan and Linda Kozlowski's marriage. Roger Ebert said in his review of the first movie, a.k.a. the best of the three, that "All of the cliches are in the right places, most of the gags pay off and there are moments of real amusement as the Australian cowboy wanders around Manhattan as a naive sightseer. The problem is that there's not one moment of chemistry between the two stars."

    Oblivion

    Morgan Freeman was DEFINITELY going for campy, decked out in hid Dr. Strangelove glasses. And maybe it's because I've never seen Melissa Leo in anything, but the Southern Belle Accent was just odd. This movie was gorgeous, it was well-scored, it still made no sense. I haven't seen Moon, and I still think this is silly fun.

    Oblivion

    Hell, I was sober and still laughed it up at the ending.

    Oblivion

    Gotta go with Shannon and Dan (and Zoukes insulted it on the After Earth podcast) I took a day to mull it over, it still was lovable garbage. All of the unoriginality and lack of surprises are WHAT made it enjoyable and ripe for HDTGM. From the hilarious performances from Morgan Freeman and Melissa Leo to the goddamn confusing as crap ending, it was just a joy. And reading my first comment with the plot synopsis, what I saw was nothing like that. Shannon, please invent the Oblivion drinking game.

    Oblivion

    Guys, I'm ten minutes in, and I already can't believe what's happening. Yankee Caps, Hamster Wheels and Ball Cars, Southern Lady in the computer, Space Motorcycle, its all too much! Edit: SLOW MO FALLING I CAN'T EVEN DEAL WITH.

    Episode 68.5 — Minisode 68.5

    I like watching films in canon, and I'm on Summer Break, what can I say? It's actually really interesting watching all of these movies in order, because the second movie ends with two Columbian Drug Lords dead at the hands of Linda Kozlowski's character while she is in witness protection in Australia. And we're just transported 13 years later with no reference to that again! The first movie was actually very charming and I found it incredibly enjoyable to watch. I phased in and out of the second one, while this...this basically is a reboot of the franchise rather than a sequel. Not only are we to believe that Croc Dundee has never visited an urban city in 13 years, but that he's still as naive as he was before he came to New York. It is mental.

    Episode 68.5 — Minisode 68.5

    I watched every single Jaws and Spider-Man movie for these guys

    Episode 68.5 — Minisode 68.5

    So, after spending the last three days watching all of the Crocodile Dundee movies in order, I definitely see where this went off the rails. Crocodile Dundee II was actually pretty violent and more Indiana Jones-esque, and to see it go from that to family film is just bonkers. I mean, Dundee has dealt with Prostitutes and Columbian Cartels, and now THIS. We also need to talk about the teacher who is Wet for Dundee and his friend Janko (Played by an actor who played a different character in the last movie. He was a villain then and now is his friend ARE THEY EVEN TRYING!)

    The Core (2003)

    I could spend FOREVER talking about the Birdemic scene and the silent acting of that child. I really need to rewatch this soon.

    Twister (1996)

    Count me in both the camp supporting it and wondering how it hasn't been done yet. I saw this for the first time a few years ago, before I gave a crap about movie quality, and it became the legitimate first movie I ever finished thinking 'Wow, that. Was. HORRIBLE.' for only three words; Obnoxious Love Triangle.

    So, how 'bout them sports?

    Episode 68.5 — Minisode 68.5

    Damn! Now I have to watch Crocodile Dundee 1 & 2 as well. Curse my compulsive need to watch movies in canon!

    Episode 68 — Over The Top: LIVE!

    I really felt vindicated when Paul said "By the way, Fuck this kid." This is literally one of the worst child actor performances I have ever seen. By the way, am I crazy, or did no one in this podcast mention the scene where STALLONE CRASHES HIS RIG THROUGH ROBERT LOGGIA'S HOUSE AND IS PROMPTLY ARRESTED?!?!?!?!?!

    Episode 68 — Over The Top: LIVE!

    Hey now, that was a really nice truck he was wresting for. It had the power to put him in a trance just moments before the finals?!? Of course it's the better truck machine.

    Episode 67 — Sharknado

    ALSO, I'm obsessed that Aukerman saw Alex Cross, and I'm hoping the next episode is Temptation, because like June, I'm dying to see it.

    Episode 67 — Sharknado

    Okay, I finally saw it, and you guys have successfully covered everything, let me just add my point. Was I the only one who hated Nova? I found her character (who I considered a baby Sasha Alexander) so unlikable and found it so difficult to get behind her as a love interest, only to have her get with his son?!? She was a real problem for me Also, I have to side with Paul on the idea that they think they are making something great. The entire family storyline was so bizarre and so out of place that I found those the most difficult to get through in this movie, but I also thought "Oh, they put this in because they thought it would give the movie depth" Top notch episode, and did anyone else notice that both movies the Den Mother of Comedy has done are water based? "You know nothing about tornadoes."
  24. Question: Does anyone contact Paul about the results of these? Just wondering because I'm picturing a scenario where all the results just pile up unused.

    R.I.P.D. (2013)

    Right?!? I read in reviews that he was in it, and just thought "Oh, he's doing a cameo", but no, HE'S THE VILLAIN Can I continue to complain about this? I paid $11 for it, so I will. The CGI is horrific. There is a scene where Mary-Louise Parker is walking in midair and it is the worst fucking greenscreening I've seen all year. Every monster that comes about looks like something that you would find in a zombie/mutant apocalypse video game, which is basically how the entire climax is set up. You are driving in a car, killing random monsters that you know nothing about, and try to reach the top of a building for the final level. I still have no idea how the body avatars work. Apparently, the world views Reynolds and Bridges as a Chinese man and a sexy woman (Who apparently has Marvin Gaye playing wherever she walks), but the criminal souls (oh god what am I doing) are viewed in their true form? And whenever the Chinese man and Sexy Lady are BRUTALLY crushed and ran over by buses, no one bothers to help them or ask what's going on? Kevin Bacon finds the gold that is both significant to the plot and part of his ulterior motive during a drug bust. HOW DID KEVIN BACON KNOW THAT THE GOLD HE NEEDED WAS THERE? WAS IT JUST A FUCKING COINCIDENCE? The extremely weird sexual scenarios implied between Mary-Louise Parker and Jeff Bridges, leading to a final scene that nearly led me to become ill. THIS ALL HAPPENED.
