Episode 31 — Birdemic: Shock and Terror LIVE!

[jarrycanada 2483]

This is one of the best shows they have ever done. I wish they would make more shows like this.

This has to be the greatest distance between the banality of the subject matter and the brilliance of the deconstruction. Jason creeping on her dirty feet alone was enough to justify the hour and half I spent listening.

This news headline " Dr.Dre & Tyrese Announce Apple Buying Beats For $3.2 Billion! " reminded me of this scene...

Something that happened to me today suddenly reminded me of this movie. Have you seen it with the Rifftrax commentary on? If not, I recommend it, I have, like 4 times, matter of fact I don't think I could have watched the entire thing without Rifftrax... Or maybe I am just weird. Okay, so today at work someone had a radio playing John Lennon's Imagine for some reason and I caught myself silently singing along "Imagine all the eagles pecking out your eyes..." as seen in this video:

 

 

Then I realized what I was doing and kind of started to pretend I was couching while looking around and thank god, I think no one had heard me.

Though it not further explained, the reason that the attacking eagles and vultures leave the beach is that they are chased/escorted away by a flight of doves.

 

Yes, this.

 

I am very new and this is only my second post so I apologize if reviving this thread is annoying. But I've just gotten in the HDTGM Podcast and I'm slightly obsessed and I just rented Birdemic and then listened to that episode and yes! I was surprised that this point about the doves making peace wasn't revealed in these ways:

1. The hosts and guests figuring out that the different cartoon screen-saver of doves and the airhorn scream sound effect being replaced with the cooing meant that they were saving the day.
   
2. Whitney Moore herself not understanding the ending of the movie she was in. I suppose since the writer/director withheld the whole script, she wouldn't necessarily see this explanation or
   
3. The characters didn't explicitly say that was happening the same way they did through horrible 90's FPS video game dialogue of describing everything that was happening, ie "We have a stove." "There's some gas" "Here's a fishing pole" "Look, the ocean." "Maybe we can use this fishing pole and the ocean to catch fish." "Yes and we can put gas in the stove and then cook the fish." "Right and then we can eat it." "I want a happy meal!" I really expected five or six lines explaining what the doves were doing ie "Look, those doves are chasing the eagles away." "Doves are the birds of peace." "The doves must be making peace with the eagles." "The doves saved our lives." "Maybe we can all share this planet after all."
   

Anyway, I apologize for drudging this up but I was really expecting this to be mentioned in the podcast or the minisode following. Maybe it was and my attention span was...hey, want to ride bikes??!...but either way, I love the podcast. Thanks for all the entertainment. I'm happy to be part of the forum and apologize if reviving this thread is annoying.

Holy shit I realize after re-listening to this episode that I might have been in the same motel as the characters were where their feet turned black. The hotel I was in used to be a Motel 6 and just walking across the room once made my feet look as if I walked through a coal mine. That or all bay area Motel 6s are utter shitholes.
