Re: Suggest an Episode
I have no idea what they would say about Threads except "damn movie, you scary".
Re: Suggest an Episode
maybe a comparison to The Day After
but, yes, it is a scary movie, terrified me back then when i was 14 or so

It's not about quality, it's about what is interesting to talk about. Failures can offer more topics for them to cover.

Re: Suggest an Episode
Fantastic Four would be an interesting one, in that regard. After all the years of people shitting on it, I was surprised by how much I didn't hate it. It does some things right (Chiklis and Evans, comedy, and most of the tone) but then it does some things very wrong (Alba, Doom, Welsh dude playing Reed, drama, the rest of the tone).

Re: Suggest an Episode
Any commentary for FF should be paired with an intermission on movies made for contractual reasons. I've seen the Roger Corman Fantastic Four movie, and would love to know how often that kind of thing happens.

I like that idea.
The Corman one was obviously made on a tiny budget, but it doesn't feel as awful as it should. You get the sense that everyone involved was trying their hardest. And when it's bad, it's charmingly bad.
I'm pretty surprised at how much I tolerate the Corman and the modern Fantastic Four.
Though I can give no such pass to Rise of The Silver-Surfer. That should have learned from the mistakes of the first one, so they have no excuses.

Re: Suggest an Episode
With all the talk of sexism and lack of strong female protagonists, and all the newly announced Shane Black projects, you guys really oughta do an episode on Long Kiss Goodnight. I feel like it's been weirdly overlooked culturally (and was a financial bomb at the time), but it's totally right up there with Die Hard for me as an all time great action flick, and one of Shane Blacks most fun scripts. Just the fact that Geena Davis is allowed to kick ass but isn't some invincible badass, and gets the shit completely kicked out of her by the end and is bleeding a la John McClane, is so rare and refreshing.

Ooh, I like that idea. Also: fun film, Sam Jackson in plaid, and you can also do the "what the heck happened to Renny Harlin?" thing.

The 'Burbs was childhood darling for me, I hear it's not very good, but would love an excuse to revisit it!

A tenner to top you off:
Burton's Alice in Wonderland (it’s horrible!)
Ravenous (it’s…delicious)
Lemony Snicket’s A series of unfortunate events (it’s a series of different things)
Brotherhood of the Wolf (it’s a LOT of things)
Snowpiercer (it’s COMMENTARY (and quite awesome))
The Road (it’s fantastic if you didn’t read the book)
Road to Perdition (it’s just gorgeous)
Tremors (it’s the best monster movie movie)
Drag me to hell (it’s the way they used to make them)
Robocop (so we can do Robocop 2!)

Re: Suggest an Episode
Are we ever gonna get some Pet Semetary 2? I feel like I've already heard the Commentary for it considering how often talk about it pops up.

Re: Suggest an Episode
Pet 2 and My Favorite Martian went head-to-head last week and Martian won the coin toss. So that's the Trey Story episode for now, but Pet 2 will come back into the rotation eventually I'm sure.

Day of the Dead is the best of the Romero zombie films.
