    I took that more as she had all this knowledge but this was the first time she was putting it into practice and was a little unsure about herself.

     

    Then by the time she was dancing for the three snakes she had it down pat!

     

     

    You're probably right...although that also means that they are not just sending an extremely valuable asset into harm's way, but they are sending him with an agent with no field experience. So that's pretty dumb...

     

    But, you know what? Who even cares anymore? This movie was mind-bendingly stupid, and honestly, at this point...

    Y'know...I find it kind of surprising that with as much emphasis MedTech places on reproduction and human sexuality in the movie, when Spangle unleashes her high level, government approved, seduction techniques on Sam it pretty much amounts to "stand there awkwardly in your underwear." I don't know, with all that training, I guess I just expected something a little more...interesting.

    Oh, I don't dislike the live shows; I just like the studio eps more. But, really, they're all great. I enjoy the conversational tone of the studio eps, which feels more like friends sitting around joking about a terrible movie. Live shows are still funny, and I love any HDTGM I can get, so I definitely don't want to come off like I hate live shows. Studio ones are just my preference. It's like if someone offered me tacos or pizza. I'll take tacos every time, but that doesn't mean I don't love pizza, too.

     

    Also, the fact that studio eps are fewer are farther between make me enjoy them even more now. They're like a nice little treat when they come up.

     

     

    ETA: She said early on that she checked out in the first few minutes of the movie.

     

    I like both (studio and live shows), but damn--I love tacos!

    Anyone who says pizza is better can straight go to Hell.

    Did anyone else think that the frog woman looked a hell of a lot like the female gremlin from Gremlins 2: The New Batch?

    Also, in that crazy Casablanca bar scene, one of the frog extras is reading The Frog Prince...

    I guess when your doomed to live your life as a hideous frog monster you've just got to own it, huh?

    Here's one thing that concerns me. He impregnates all of these women to get the population restarted, then what happens? There are now all these Roddy Piper Fathered Half-Siblings running around, all of them genetically related, and if the population is gonna keep growing, who are they gonna keep the population growing with? Do they have to keep some kind of dog tag on, or a bracelet so they can identify each other so they don't end up fucking when they grow up?

     

    You've gotten rid of the frog people, and now you've potentially ushered in an in-breeding catastrophe.

     

    Here's the problem with that, too. They say in the movie that something like 68% of men are infertile. Okay, fine. Let's go ahead and increase that to 75%. So, even if I increase the percentage of infertile people, that still leave 25% (1 in 4) still fertile. I know that's not great, but it's not exactly a deal breaker either. He's not really as rare as the movie portrays him.

     

    Let's say there's a million people left in the world. I wager that the 250,000 still fertile people left could adequately repopulate the planet.

    There is something that really bothers me. So he's one of the few men (not the only one) who can reproduce. As mentioned in the podcast they really should get as much sperm as they can from him, put it in the freezer and use it over and over.

    But, instead of sending armed men, a few soldiers with rifles to Frogtown, who then get the kidnapped women, they sent him. He, who is so valuable, is sent on a dangerous mission, because...? Because he needs to fuck'em as soon as possible?

    Just keep him safe, let him wank in a cup, get the girls and stop let him hump every woman he sees.

     

    This is also assuming that all the women just happen to be ovulating at the same time. And also ovulating at whatever moment he can even get there. Because, we all know, nothing untoward ever happens in dystopian Hellscapes that might cause delays.

     

    God, I hate this movie. No effort at all. It's like the director/writer was taught sex education during a lobotomy.

    Great episode!

     

    While I have no desire to actually re-watch this movie to catch when and which character said it, did anyone else catch that in the universe of this movie there also appears to be a town called either "Eagleton" or "Eagletown?" Does that mean that there is another place in this movie filled with anthropomorphic eagles? It seems to me that the logical sequel in the "Hell comes to..." franchise should have taken place there. If nothing else, it would have given Sam the Eagle an opportunity to finally get out from Kermit the Frog's shadow and lead a movie where "Rowdy" Roddy Piper attempts to steal-fuck a number of concubines from his formidable Aerial Fortress.

     

    Where's my Hell Comes to Frogtown/ Muppets crossover, motherfuckers?!?

    And, not for nothing, but eagles--like frogs--also have cloacae, so it would at least fit with the total disregard for animal anatomy exhibited in this movie.

    Holy shit. Not to derail this mostly stagnant thread, but you're right. I think I listened to this one while I was marathoning all the episodes when I first got into it, so it didn't particularly stand out to me. But, after relistening, this episode is fantastic. They start out talking about "top commas," and the episode just gets better from there.

     

    I do love the live episodes, but listening to studio episodes remind me why I love this podcast. The live shows feel like performances. They're all entertainers and feed off of the energy of the crowd. But this just feels like four friends hanging out and cracking jokes about a silly-ass movie. It's so delightful.

     

    I'll cosign this. You're 100% right. I love the live episodes, but as I've been going through all the episodes, I feel more drawn to the studio episodes--especially ones like Junior and Monkey Shines where there were completely guest-less. Now, I'm not advocating for no live episodes or guests, but it's the studio episodes where I really get the feeling that they enjoy doing just this because they like hanging out together and making each other laugh.

     

    ...or maybe they can't stand each other and they are the three greatest actors on the planet.

    I was about to say, "What about Katie Aselton?!" and then I went and looked it up.

     

    Guess I'm re-listening to the Temptation episode on the way home.

     

    I just re-listened to this the other day for the Howdy's and it may be my very favorite episode! Enjoy your re-listen!

    This one is a bit of a Dark Horse, but I feel like it is worthy for consideration

    scabber-- a moderate to severe stab wound from a knife or other sharp implement that quickly scabs over and conceals all evidence or outward signs of injury

    I feel all your C&O issues. Please nominate your best posts. We need them. I don't care if you vote for yourself - send them to HOWDIDTHISGETMADE@EARWOLF.COM

     

    Re: Selection - We try to pass the baton a bit and not just make it the same people week after week and unfortunately some of the bigger posts just get trimmed down for brevity and my by solid choice to not pre-read and make notes...But the long ones are fun too. Your comments are my favorite things about the show and I love butchering all of them in fun/different and new ways.

     

    Also always open to any new ideas for the mini, that can be done with not too much production.

     

    You have my express permission to butcher my stupid ass posts or make fun of me as much as you want. ;)

    (who I almost call Spangler every time; sorry, Egon)

    But, I will say that the second half of the movie gets a lot better. Once they get to Frogtown, it gets back to the kind of fucking weird/awesome movie we expect from HDTGM

     

     

     

     

    Not sure why we're using "spoiler" tags still, but I'm game...

     

    Yeah, I hope it will get better. So far, if it isn't being outright insulting, I've actually found it kind of boring...but, like you said, I haven't even got to the titular Frogtown yet. I'll try to keep an open mind, but it's lost a lot of ground that it will need to recover for me get me on board...We'll see.

    Yeah, I had a real problem with that. I went back and forth on it, because Spangle forces him to do it, but he also only protests for, like, a second.

     

    Then, the next morning, the victim is all appreciative, which is a really strange "She'll thank you for it later "message to tack onto the end of that rape plot.

     

    I haven't even begun to unpack this in my brain yet, so I'm sure I'll have more to say on that by the time we hit the main episode thread. But I'm also pretty sure they'll talk about that scene a lot, especially if June is there (this was recorded the same night as Solarbabies, so she should be, right?). It's definitely "upsetting."

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Yeah, it's 100% rape. That's basically as far as I got this morning. So far, I hate this movie, and I can't really imagine that the remaining hour is going to make me change my mind. It's like a twelve year old douche bag boy's fantasy of what sex is like. I don't care if the human race is about to die off, you can't drug someone into having sex, and then try to justify that with "but she really wanted it." I mean, why does it even have to be "sex?" Why can't it be IVF? The only reason I can think is because the writer was like, "Wouldn't it be cool if I was the last man on Earth and all these chicks just wanted my balls?" I assume this thought would then be followed by creepy, lecherous laughter.

    Yeah Jill Kelly was in the 3rd one where the director used his own filming style called Zen film making where there was no script and basically the whole movie was ad libbed on the spot while following a loose plot outline. What's funny is when I watched this one I couldn't get out of my head how much the lead actress looked like Jill Kelly and then was shocked to see that the director actually brought her in for the uber-shitty sequel.

     

    This scene along with Clark Kent burying his dog on the moon in Superman Earth One are the two saddest fucking scenes I've ever read in comics. Holy hell do they pull at your damn heartstrings. What's worse with Y: the Last Man is

    Yorick really doesn't win: the woman he thought he loved wanted to leave him at the start of the series which would have made his whole journey completely different if he knew, but still kinda pointless in the end, his mother was murdered, the woman he unintentionally fell in love with was murdered by the suicidal zealot who killed his mom, and he is deemed insane in his old age by his own offspring and former loved ones and driven to attempts of suicide.

    Now that I think about that series, fuck you Brian K. Vaughan for making me feel those feels.

     

    Man, wouldn't it suck if this thread was suddenly filled with a bunch of out of context panels from some of the saddest moments in comics?
