FuriousGeorge posted:Don't forget Edgar Wright. Everyone was astounded when he finally managed to get one wrong in a recent episode. Let's not forget, it managed to get Country Bear Jamboree in zero names. I say it, because no human could do that. benito posted:Unrelated, but what does everyone think about the new Zero Names option? I think it should be reserved for highly skilled participants like Samm Levine and Edgar Wright, but it's a neat twist on the game, and something to freshen up the show a bit. Riptor posted:Weird, I tried to download the Maltin/Pardo/Levin episode and it downloaded the newest one instead. Anyone have this issue? Yes. Try again. It was sad to skip the one where he's uberbaked trying to get to Len and... it's the same one.

OldHansMoleman posted:I think he took it down because it made him look horrible. Why would anyone want to go to his show or book him when he is like that. I think this is the case. The podcast is excellent free advertising for his standup, and that episode was poo poo. (though, kudos to the guests for doing what they could to salvage it) Though, I am surprised - apart from rare (and always explained after the fact) bleeping, he always plays it where it lies. No editing.

TetsuoTW posted:What am I missing? I listened to like five minutes of that episode and it just sounded like a line-up of lovely one-joke gimmicks. They're all characters from Comedy Bang Bang. It's not just that they're over the top, it's also that they're improvising as these characters. And done by three exceptionally funny people.

Wow, I rather liked it. It was over 2 hours but it didn't really feel that long. Sure, they sucked at the game, but I thought it was generally entertaining, and better than the too-stoned-to-podcast episode. It was also the most entertaining Build a Title in a while. Now that you mention it though, there really was no reason for her to point out that she had a bra on. There was a lot of that kind of thing in there... Edit: Wait I just noticed I still had 45 minutes left in this? ... okay so much for saying it doesn't feel too long, I thought I was near the end.  Edit: OK, you're right, it gets worse. Also, "Brendan Sextonill" lol. Golbez fucked around with this message at 22:29 on Nov 30, 2011 |

graventy posted:I'm not a huge fan of Build a Title, but it's kind of fun to play along with in my head while I listen. This one was just four idiots who couldn't even follow the rules or figure out the game. That's just it. It was an entirely different game when when Doug and Graham play in a car. The stakes are zero, so it was fun to just have people bullshit around it for a few minutes. Now, they didn't *know* they were bullshitting around it, they thought they were being genuine certified geniuses, but it was still entertaining. Then again, I started with a relatively high opinion of the episode, compared to y'all, but the more I think on it the more I

I love how pissed Doug can get. Everyone thinks he's just this laid back jolly stoner, but you gently caress with his show and he *will* snap at you. In his jolly stoner way. But nothing harshes his buzz more than someone dragging down his game. I also liked how even the audience got a bit restless. US! US! BRUCE WILLIS!

And don't forget that HDTGM is not just about bad movies. It's about ridiculously amazing movies that are so ridiculous it's amazing they get made. Definitely listen to the Punisher: War Zone episode, as it's definitely the best of that class. And also, definitely watch Punisher: War Zone, it's loving amazing.

Majorian posted:Listening to the Paul F Tompkins/Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber/Garry Marshall episode right now. This is spectacular. ALW getting (dare I say it) catty with Garry's and Doug's ramblings is some of the funniest poo poo I've heard on this podcast. PFT needs to do more live interplay with his characters. What's so amazing about that is that PFT was able to internally keep track of being three parts of a four-way conversation, AND keep the audience entertained and involved.

When we saw Doug in Des Moines last year, we had to sign a release, they had a camera crew there. Hoping we ended up in the movie! Going to see him in Madison at 4:20 on April Fool's Day. Anyone else in the region heading there?

The storm at the beginning of the trailer was from Des Moines. That was a scary as hell storm. Also, his joke about "I'm a known pot smoker... NPS. .. I mean KPS." was from Des Moines. Unless that's part of his act but it seemed like a genuine stoner flub. I think you might be able to see my hair in one shot.

Radio = how it sounds. Text = how it reads. Wrath of Khan/Con Air is perfectly fine for radio but not text. Some Like It Hot/The Others is fine for text (Some Like It Hothers) but not for radio, since Hot and Oth have different sounds.

Saw Doug and Graham yesterday at 4:20 in Madison. Amazing show. Doug was the most stoned I've ever seen him (at the start he said he was a 7.4... out of 7.4. Later he upped it to 7.5), to the point that he even forgot to do the shitheads at the end.

The nametags picked that I noticed were a box of vegan, gluten-free chocolate cookies [for Graham, of course], a severed arm, and one other. The person plays a single round against Graham; winner gets the bag of goodies (Which consisted of Graham's CD, Doug's CD, and ... I think a shirt?), loser supposedly gets their shithead read and heads back to their seat.quote:Are they still shooting for the tour movie? Maybe they needed a climactic weeded out performance and you went to the right one. Nope, they finished shooting The Greatest Movie Ever Rolled. This one wasn't on camera; if it was, we would have had to sign a release like we did last time when they said it was going to be on camera.

FitFortDanga posted:The new game ("ABCDeez Nuts") is really really loving boring. I thought Build-A-Title was bad, but this is just utterly pointless and repetitive. I hope he doesn't keep doing this game every episode. It'll probably go til he loses (  ) but I also like the fact that people get tripped up on some really easy letters. I don't think anyone's lost on Q or X, it's always a letter with thousands of options.

A requirement for any Build a Title or ABCDeezNuts is that you must be able to name a lead actor or the director, without hesitation. You can't guess a title, you have to know a title.

Surely he could plug into the venue's soundboard instead of putting a tape recorder on the floor or however these get picked up. It's recording on his iPhone I believe. I think these are just ones he decides to record off the cuff.
