I've seen a bunch of Frogtown, and by extension Donald G. Jackson movies. The second one replaces Roddy Piper with Robert Z'Dar and think there's one that has porn star Jill Kelly in a leading role... (Max Hell Frog Warrior, might be the 3rd one).

 

The first one is probably watchable but don't start exploring this guy's catalogue unless you really wanna jump down a wormhole of peyote-fueled garbage.

I don't remember watching Hell Comes to Frogtown, but according to my imdb rating I hated it

[FisterRoboto 7499]

I wish everyone that called into the Paul Ask # would take note of AJ's call, because it was basically perfect. He clearly had worked on what he was going to say. If he didn't write everything down, he at least had a bullet point list of the high points. His message was a bit longer, but that's just because he needed to set things up. Overall, he was very concise and was probably one of the best call-ins we've had.

 

I don't want to bring up the one that completely drove me up the wall because I realize that it takes a certain amount of nerve just to call in and have your voice played on the podcast. I haven't done it, so I'm really in no place to criticize, but I just wanted to point out how great I thought that dude did.

I just ate a Jalapeno Fresco Chicken Sandwich™ from Wendy's.

 

Oh, Paul...

 

You owe me, bro. Big time.

Hell Comes to Frogtown... I am so happy about this one!

[Smigg 1488]

No MK Annihilation?! Paul's gonna get Powerbombed soon enough...

I think you may want it too much. They may be afraid that if they do Annihilation that you'll have no reason to stick around. They're just keeping you on the line, my friend. Every listener counts.

Judging from the cover alone Hell comes to frogtown seems like a solid episode in the making.

I'll ALWAYS stick around, this is like internet home for me... other than various shameful porn sites, gambling sites and I've said too much revealing stuff about myself already.

One of these days I'll make a C&O that gets read on the show.

 

 

 

Maybe one day Senpai will notice me. (In my case Senpai is Jason, but the joke still works in this case too.)

Just don't try. All the ones Paul's ever read from mine have been ones that I thought were really stupid when I was writing them. And the ones where I was like, "OH SNAP I'M ONTO SOMETHING!" disappeared into the ether.

 

So, just like in life, it doesn't pay to try.

 

For anything.

 

Ever.

Same with me, to put it into perspective, go back to the "Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Couseller" corrections and omissions, Paul read out an omission that was a reply to my omission that Brice and Judith were an approximation of Jesus Christ and Judas Escariot. and I thought "What the hell?! I brought that shit up!"

[brotherTodd 22]

Well after this minisode, I naturally want to see something called Superbabies, and not that Baby Genius garbage.

I'm with Fister. Mine that he read for this minisode he was dropping out words, cutting out jokes, and making me sound like a real asshole. Which is accurate. But I don't need any help with that.

[Elektra Boogaloo 3371]

I don't know if I can watch this next movie. Can I just read Y THE LAST MAN again, please?

[Cameron H. 23786]

Yeah, when I was listening to it I was like, "ChunkStyle--what a fucking asshole!"

 

But honestly, I think you all are being too harsh. Fortunately for me, he hasn't "egariously" butchered any of mine in a long time, but I still feel like it's a badge of honor for Paul to mutilate your posts. I've been re-listening to all the minis for nominees for the Howdy's (I don't feel right nominating any of my own) and I still cringe at his read of my LOL post. It was tragic. But, it's all in good fun. I still just think it's cool that he, Nate, or Marissa think any of my stupid bullshit is even worthy to be read.

 

In regard to Fister's point about reading the posts that you don't think are very good, my favorite example of this was during the Zardoz 2 episode and my pseudo-philosophical meanderings on that movie. I remember writing that post simply because I was totally talking out of my ass. I hated that movie so much! And I was scrolling through all the comments and everyone seemed to be giving that movie so much weight and just assigning meaning to everything. So, in like ten minutes, I just farted out this post in response--basically making fun of all the mumbo-jumbo BS I was reading. Next thing I know, he's reading it to June, and they're saying something like, "Wow--I guess this movie really does make you think, doesn't it..."

[Cameron H. 23786]

If you wanna fucking cry!

Could you imagine if he had done this with one of the posts you, me, or Taylor Anne made to make fun of all the Caramel hate a couple threads back?

 

I think that would have been pretty hilarious.

Yes my comment was very tongue in cheek it is always fun regardless. And now with the Paul Ask phone line there is no way to complain. If you don't trust Paul to deliver your message you can do it yourself.

He also called George Lucas' first film "THX One-one-three-eight" instead of "eleven-thirty-eight."

 

I guess, technically, they're both right, but I've never heard it called one-one-three-eight, and in the film, they call Robert Duvall "THX Eleven-Thirty-Eight."

 

But then again, it's Lucas, who couldn't decide over three movies how he wanted a single character's name to be pronounced.

[Molly L. 99]

Well, I've literally never been more horrified or confused listening to Paul describe next week's movie...

Poor, poor Ampersand I may have to go cheer myself up with some "Pride of Baghdad"...minus the last few pages or so...
