IHugKittens 53 Posted August 22, 2014 Great episode, although I am kind of disappointed that two of my favorite crazy June theories were left out: 1) Seagal used deer penis to make Wayans become more sensitive in touch with his feminine side in The Glimmer Man. 2) Judges in Judge Dredd had no genitalia. And her question "Are they humans?" during the "Nothing But Trouble" ep. 1 Share this post Link to post
MondayCity 194 Posted August 22, 2014 Re sponsors: 1. "Cards Against Humanity" IS a hilarious game. 2. Why did Paul say that sponsors ask him not to use violence in their spots? Has that been a big problem? I could imagine that could be an issue if the sponsor were a saw, a hostel, or a summer camp, but has Paul been tempted to incorporate brutality and gore into his Nature Box pitches? 3. I just read that Nordstrom bought Trunk Club for $350 million. I have to believe that TC's exposure on HDTGM drove that acquisition. So, congratulations. By the way, with that kind of money, the sellers could easily reboot Pluto Nash and make it right this time--or they could remake Sleepaway Camp one thousand times. Share this post Link to post

GeoffZoref 12 Posted August 23, 2014 Great show. I never miss it . However the numbers that June recited sound...specious at best. I believe that the total cost of all the movies is correct-- in the lower billions, but not trillions. And yes, I'm sure the writer of the post got it right.

starri 116 Posted August 23, 2014 this...was EXACTLY what i was referring to. I only wish that Zouks' Devil's Advocate "I'll show you the fastest way to get around town: the SUBWAY, my boy!" had been eligible. And Tom Lennon's double duty as Hulk Hogan and Kurt Fuller from No Holds Barred was an oversight, brother. 3 Share this post Link to post
MondayCity 194 Posted August 24, 2014 To be fair, It's not exactly a secret that Reeve got carried away with himself after Superman The Movie. He famously fought bitterly with Margot Kidder on Superman IV. Although to his credit, he seemed to come back down to earth by the early 90s. I hardly ever tell this story, but here goes: I had a non-speaking part as a villain on Ang Lee's Hulk movie. When I heard that they were going to use CGI for the Hulk, I told Ang just to "Lou Ferrigno" it. So they used my trainer and a whole bunch of anabolic steroids to bulk up Eric Bana and then painted him green. He got up to about 190 lbs for the part, and none of it was flab. Well, one day, I heard that Eric Bana was talking trash about me, so I grabbed him by the neck and told him that he was going to be using my poo as a hair conditioner. He kind of stomped back to his trailer, and when Ang asked him what was wrong, Bana just said, "Hulk scared." Ang came after me and said that I would never work in this business again. I grabbed him by the neck and told him that he didn't know anything about comic books. I said, "You should be making movies about gay cowboys or something instead." Everyone heard this and started laughing at him. The rest, as they say, is history. 6 Share this post Link to post

MondayCity 194 Posted August 24, 2014 In defense of the pasta robot: 1. Rob Schneider is clearly tampering with the robot because when Dredd says "Halt!" and obstructs the robot's passage away from the crime scene, the robot says, "The servo-droid is your friend. Please let your friend go by." The robot would not have said that unless Rob Schneider was manipulating its verbalizing functions and trying to escape. 2. Dredd arrests Schneider for "wilfull sabotage" of a public droid. 3. It is possible to make a battery out of a potatoes or lemons. Every middle school science fair contains some such contraption. It is not entirely unreasonable to believe that a robot whose stated purpose is to recycle food could be powered by, and even perhaps wired with, food products--especially in a society that has the technology to produce clones that come to life as adults and have genitals that were completely formed in the last 30 minutes of the gestation process. Ergo, Rob Schneider could have been using the spaghetti to hack the servo-droid. June, that's the best I've got. I'm not a scientist (and, Pete Holmes, I'm not a cop). 1 Share this post Link to post

RebeccaMis 22 Posted August 24, 2014 Awesome episode! Only thing I could've done without was Paul's excitement for Jack O'Halloran's contributions during the Superman III ep. That dude sounds like such an insecure, desperate bully and he bums me the F out. That is one of only two episodes that I don't go back and listen to, because O'Halloran was the worst. I can't deal with the Wild, Wild West episode either, because Kevin Smith made it all about himself. 1 Share this post Link to post

Entering the Bone Zone 81 Posted August 27, 2014 Gus' numbers got me thinking: Are there legit Stallone apologists in the world? Save Rocky and of course Snaps Provolone from the incredible "Oscar," I cannot think of a time I really enjoyed him or any of his films. Even the by-the-numbers action stuff is ruined by his mush mouth delivery. How is this guy a star? And for 40 years no less! Share this post Link to post

They can make it a coronation episode called, "How Did This Get SchuMade?" and they can keep "St. Emilio's Fire" in the chamber in case they ever need it to defend his reign as king of HDTGM directors.
