Honestly, it's hard to pick a bad musical because so many things that would make a regular movie bad make a musical great.

Maybe if they do the Pagemaster or some other Macaulay Caulkin movie.

So, crossposting from the "Pay attention to the thing I make" opic, since no one goes there. We are starting a podcast network-ish thing of sorts, and part of that is bad movie reviews... We posted our first Movie Night! We reviewed The Faculty. So check us out, not only that, but we love "we hate movies" I called in to request Moving Violations. Please reply, and post the movie you suggested for their listener request month, we will pick the best one, that the pros don't cover, and review it. Thank you guys, you are great, check us out, and let us know what you think. http://www.bnebyob.com http://feeds.feedburner.com/Bnebyob Comedy/news/reviews

Anyone have any guesses for the Stephen King movie next week on WHM? I'm hoping for either Maximum Overdrive or Thinner, but I'll be okay with Graveyard Shift as well, even though I know very little about it, because it sounds super terrible.

Stephen King is a wealth of option and you could make a bad movie podcast just of Stephen King adaptations. My money would be on Maximum Overdrive for obvious reasons, but there's just so many possibilities. I wonder if Stuart Gordon wonders why everyone has been asking him about Castle Freak and ding-dongs lately...

What are the Stephen King movies that they wont touch? I am thinking its Carrie, Misery, Dead Zone, Shinning, Stand By Me, The Shawshank Redemption, Green Mile. I wonder if next week is Lawnmower man, as I think its been mentioned as a stay tuned. Holy poo poo look at all these potential episodes. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_adaptations_of_works_by_Stephen_King bobkatt013 fucked around with this message at 17:40 on Sep 18, 2014 |

They do talk about Thinner a lot but I think it's a pretty decent movie overall, so I doubt that. Creepshow is silly and weird but it's that way on purpose, so it's a pretty soft target. I would say that it's one of the only truly good horror anthologies, I mean it hits the horror comic book tone so pitch perfectly. Creepshow 2 however is fair game, but it does have one good story that I can recall. I hope it's Lawnmower Man as well. Somehow that dumb movie scared me when I was a kid, and I have no idea how.

Creepshow 2 has The Raft which is loving outstanding and comes very close to making watching the entire film worth it. Creepshow 1 is one of, if not the best horror anthology film ever made and should be watched by all horror fans.

Yeah, we did a whole Stephen King month a year or two ago for Alcohollywood, and Creepshow was the one we picked for our actual Halloween episode. It's bonkers in the most delightful way. "METEOR poo poo!"

Streaming usually cuts off a minute or two in, and if I download it it'll give a really weird progress bar and eventually fail. I have to get your podcasts whenever I'm connected to wifi. I use the iphone podcast app, which amittedly has its problems, but ALcohollywood is the only thing I've noticed it doing this with.

That's strange; we used to have problems with the Apple podcast app, but to my understanding they'd worked themselves out a while ago. Is it still happening? As for the old episodes thing, you're correct; unfortunately, we have to cap our max results or else our RSS feed gets too big for iTunes to read and it won't put new episodes up. After all, RSS feeds aren't meant to act as an archive for your podcast, just a way to update the newest stuff - our King stuff, for example, was posted all the way back in 2012. They're all still available on our site or where we host them on Tindeck, if you want to grab old episodes.

Hmm, that is strange; I just tried to do an old one on my podcast app and it was fine, but it was on wifi. That's SO strange that it only doesn't work on 3G for you. I'll ask my gf (who has an iPhone) to download an episode again on hers and see what happens. On a related note, Nathan Rabin joined us again to talk UHF; the results are pretty fun, considering he literally wrote the book on Weird Al. I'm also trying not to be bitter about WHM's Spooktacular, since this year's Horror Octorbor is going to all be sequels as well - since it's our third year, we're covering the third installment of several horror franchises (Nightmare on Elm Street III, Saw III, Paranormal Activity III, The Omen III, Halloween III: Season of the Witch).

I think it was an old WHM, but it may have been another bad movie podcast that did a horror anthology film. It seems like anthology films don't work out all that well because of the lack of consistent characters to make hay out of through the entire episode. It seems easy for a podcast to lose focus or cohesion, or something, when there is a complete change of plot, actors and setting. Someone mentioned suggesting a musical to WHM for listener request month, and even mentioned The Wiz. A couple months ago it was reviewed by another podcast, Black on Black Cinema. It's not strictly a bad movie podcast, but the reviewers really didn't care for it, and pretty well tore it to shreds. There is pretty decent amount of fault to find in it, not the least of which was Diana Ross playing Dorothy, despite being nearly triple the age of the character. She apparently threw a massive fit to get cast in the role, because she secured Michael Jackson for the part of the scarecrow.

Trilogy of terror, perhaps? I remember the running character was a cat, which they got some mileage out of. Yeah, though, the lack of a consistent through-line undermines running gags and callbacks.

Listening to some of the more recent WHM episodes and whoever was praising Erik is totally right. A small question though, what is the Tommy Lee Jones "Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack..." bit a reference to?

I love all the WHM guys for one reason or another. Andrew is a great host and nails the impressions (good or bad), Steve is the quickest witted, Eric's dry humor is a great balance and Chris has righteous indignation paired with some deep film knowledge. That said, Andrew-Eric-Chris episodes are by far the weakest. I don't know if that's saying more about Steve or Chris. That said, have any of you guys tried watching their Private Cabin skits on Youtube? Hoooooly poo poo are they bad.

My only real problem is that occasionally one or two of them get derailed with righteous indignation about a character doing something dumb, and it wouldn't be bad, but they aren't really squeezing jokes out of it. More just talking like, "if you're a soldier/policeman/whatever, you know rule number one is don't do <thing>," when it's a crazy movie premise situation no one has planned for. Then again, I've also come to terms with Prometheus as being mostly about people doing dumb things in unfamiliar situations (as opposed to just the main plot points which are obviously that), so I'm probably too forgiving of movie logic.

It's a neat concept, but it just doesn't work for them for a bunch of reasons, but mostly it's not really the thing I expected to hear when I was told it's a "conspiracy theory takedown podcast" or however it's described as on WHM.
