Yeah, you are making it seem worse than it actually was. The baby was an "issue" a couple of times and I really didn't mind, I mean, why would I be upset over a baby interrupting my free bad movie podcast? Is Sharknado 2 so important that the discussion must not be interrupted by anyone?

I think they just brought the baby as a "fun" thing and then they realized it wasn't a good idea because of the crying. I doubt they'll do it again.

I figured they might've just not been able to get someone to look after it on short notice. With a baby that young I wouldn't want to just get a babysitter if I were them.

There's always the medicinal treatment of the infant's gums as suggested by the pediatric clinic of Drs. Walker, Daniels and Beam. Like Great-Great-Grandma used to do.

I know first time parenthood is scary for everyone, but these two seem especially clueless about it all. "A baby is coming! We need to quit all our jobs! It must be intensely stared at 24/7!"
You know they do stuff besides putting out a podcast where they talk about lovely movies, right? Paul is both playing a producer and working as an actual producer on Hotwives of Orlando and they're both still acting in all kinds of other stuff.

If I was a working parent of a newborn baby operating on two hours of sleep or so per night telling people about how bad Gooby or Sharknado 2 are would be pretty low on my list of priorities too.

I had no idea it was a thing, which shocks me because I was right in the meaty part of that target audience at the time, but wow does it sound like maybe the worst thing.

I've seen Clifford because Tom Scharpling told me to a bunch of times. 90s Charles Grodin yelling at stuff is good for some nostalgia points with me, everything about Martin Short in that movie is incredibly weird and off-putting though.

I definitely saw it in theaters and a bunch of times on video. Don't quite remember why, but I think it had something to do with 1) being too young to accurately judge the quality of movies from their trailers and 2) liking Martin Short from SNL reruns on Comedy Central.

Yes, people knew about Clifford when it came out. It was infamously bad even at the time. Roger Ebert gave it a review that's comparable to his North review.

Siskel & Ebert's review of Clifford. I rented it from Blockbuster after it came out. It was impressively weird. Even as a kid, it was so bad I started to wonder what went wrong with the people making the film. Short as a child was just too unsettling to ever let anyone get into the story.

I remember as I kid one movie night was Clifford and Exit to Eden. I am not sure what movie scarred me more.

If anyone is wondering how How Did This Get Made would handle the responsibilities of having a new baby and also regularly recording new episodes apparently the answer is to just bring the baby to the recordings where they constantly scream at each other and have the audio of a crying baby in the background of the entire episode.

The baby made a little noise like twice in the episode, and if you were actually that bothered by it you really need to calm down and go find something else to do.

I unsubscribed from HDTGM specifically for these reasons, but I'm going to download the Sharknado 2 episode just to see how bad it got. I guess I'm now not only a fan of bad movies and bad movie podcasts, but a fan of bad bad movie podcasts...!

I'm curious about what kind of fetishes you develop as a result of seeing both of those movies at that age, but at the same time I know that the answer would horrify me.

I had the same realization that the hosts had about having forgotten that I saw Clifford. It took me until they describe the dinosaur ride to do it though.

The WHM rerun really makes me wish they put in as many sound clips nowadays as they did in these old eps.

I am quite possibly the most damaged poster on the forums, short of that dude who was just trying to protect his puckins.

Oddly enough though, nothing particularly interesting as far as sexual needs or fetishes. Maybe it worked as a strange form of the "Son, you're going to smoke this whole carton of cigarettes and never feel the desire to smoke again" therapy.

I can say that I'd likely reflexively stab Martin Short were he to ever sneak up on me.


On a separate note, does anyone else listen to Black on Black Cinema? It's probably one of my favorite film podcasts. It has a similar format to We Hate Movies, The Flophouse, HDTGM, etc. Although it's not specifically a 'bad movie' podcast, like anything there are a lot of really garbage black movies, and a lot of their best episodes are walking through a movie that is either of poor quality, or has, in their estimation, undeservedly become well-regarded over time and doesn't look so good under modern scrutiny.

Andrew Jupin made a comment about that around when they got their theme song that he used to be a lot more insecure about the show and would spend a lot of time editing out long pauses and looking for clips and finding the right song to put in as the theme.

It's the same sort of thing as the Catwoman episode where they basically just shrug and say that if they pointed out differences that would be the entire show

My only issue with Catwoman was them acting as if "Batman Returns" was the high water mark of Catwoman, or... anything, really. Also disappointed they didn't make comparisons to "Cat People:" would Halle turn into a literal cat if she slept with Ben Bratt? As a fan of Cat People, these are jokes I demand from WHM!

The Invisible Child ep is a joy to listen to it, but to be fair the movie is doing at least half the work. They had their premise, and they just went for it.

Pippi's one of my favorites too, though right up there is Mrs. Doubtfire, which has my inexplicable favorite side tangent: Pierce Brosnan, mom's new boyfriend. "I've got all sorts of Remington Steele stories. And toys and sweets!"

I just listened to one of the older episodes of WHM-- episode 89 The Rapture. At the beginning Andrew makes reference to an edit he makes to the podcast due to "recent events" and not being comfortable with describing the scene. Can anyone enlighten me as to what those events were and what the scene was? what were the recent events he was referring to? I am going to guess it might have been the Sandy Hook school shooting, but as the podcasts don't seem to be date stamped, I can't tell for sure when the file was originally posted.

When podcasts do things like this, I really wish they'd keep the unedited version on hand and just quietly switch the edited one out after a few weeks or so. A lot of work for probably just a couple minutes of extra content though.

Yea it came out the week of Sandy Hook and he wasn't comfortable having the show have what I assume must have been a decent bit of time spent on talking about a crazy person shooting a child when that actually happened in a larger scale.
