Alright... although this is a podcast, I feel like it wont get the attention it deserves in the audio forum. I stumbled upon this podcast a few months ago and it's my go-to entertainment for the day as I work on a computer. Essentially, it's a group of guys that review a "bad" movie. At a running time of at least one hour for each episode, they go into fun and hilarious details of the films while picking it apart and ultimately giving it a recommendation (or not). I can't really explain it any further. It's just something you have to listen to. I've laughed so hard at times I had to nearly walk away from my computer so my co-workers don't think I'm some sort of lunatic. As for a starter, try listening to this Rocky IV review: https://ia701205.us.archive.org/16/items/Episode55-RockyIv/RockyIv.mp3 I should also mention that all of the episodes are FREE. Here's a complete list of episodes (over 150 so far): http://www.whmpodcast.com/p/episodes.html They also update with a new review once a week! Give it a listen. xzoto1 fucked around with this message at 23:11 on Dec 2, 2014 |

Kangra posted:Well, there is an omnibus bad movie podcast thread where it does get some love, but this may be a good place to talk about it on its own. Which episodes did you try listening to?

Kangra posted:Cliffhanger, The Butterfly Effect, and I think either The Net or Hackers. Giving Rocky IV a shot now, but it's just not my thing. I actually listeneded to those as well (except Cliffhanger) and wasn't a big fan of them. Post your thoughts on Rocky IV!

Kangra posted:Rocky IV was better than the others. Kind of feel like I'm making GBS threads up the thread with criticism, and it's really a matter of me not liking their style than thinking it's bad in some way. I'm just not as interested in the movie as they seem to be. Haha no worries. To each their own. I loved the Paulie bit with Leapy. Hilarious.

The funniest impersonation of a "celebrity" is the one with Louie Anderson in The Day After Tomorrow episode. It had me in tears.

thrawn527 posted:Actually, they occasionally have a guest named Justin Case on, who is an expert in disaster movies. He's the only one I can think of, though. I find it odd as well. For me, I could tell who was who within the first few minutes of listening to them for the first time.

TetsuoTW posted:I don't know, I still sometimes confuse Cabin and Jupin. It doesn't really make any sense, but whatever. Also people have this problem with basically every podcast, it's kinda crazy. I can tell when Cabin is talking because it hurts my god drat ears. He yells too much. I can't remember the exact episode, but I turned it off because his yelling was just too much to handle. Tender Bender posted:I actually think Andrew's pretty unfunny, but I love Eric and Steve. Chris is pretty good too. Yeah, Andrew isn't particularly funny but I feel like he's the "host" of the show and keeps everything on track and really delves into the details. Eric and Steven of course add most (if not all) of the humor on the points he makes and then Cabin comes in and yells things. xzoto1 fucked around with this message at 23:45 on Dec 30, 2014 |

Vedius Pollio posted:My absolute favorite WHM story is from the S.W.A.T. episode where Erik talks about threatening to beat up an old couple who complained about him eating popcorn. It's just so hilariously out of character and goes completely out of control as he attempts to improvise. Yet to listen to this one. Sounds funny. It will be next on my list.

I don't want to derail my own thread, but a few people mentioned The Flophouse and I've listened to over a dozen episodes so far. I actually listen to it on my way to work. While funny, they never really delve into the plot. I feel like I need to see the movie prior to listening. The problem with that is the fact that I have to watch lovely movies. WHM elaborates on the plot to the point that after listening to an episode I feel like I actually watched the movie. Also, The Flophouse should be called "The Elliot Kalan Show". xzoto1 fucked around with this message at 18:15 on Jan 8, 2015 |

Synnr posted:The point has been brought up repeatedly that its a comedy podcast that is just buds bullshitting about a movie, not a movie podcast that happens to include comedy. You aren't alone, because they bring it up whenever they start getting a bunch of emails about it, but its just a weird thing to me. I mean, do you really need to watch Foodfight to laugh at a tin-tin joke or nazi/furry jokes? That's understandable. I just find that if I've seen the movie I can relate better to the jokes. As for WHM, start off with Rocky IV. And yes, they are generally around the 1.5 hour mark. Also, this weeks episode of Sabotage is absolutely hilarious.

The Duke posted:The best part was the old man telling Kiefer Sutherland "Oooh you're a work of art!" Holy hell was that whole bit hilarious. The entire episode was "meh" up until the art segment.

DrVenkman posted:Yeah it wasn't the best episode, but then there's not a lot to pick apart in that movie. It's just sort of a generic thriller until the climax, which still isn't really that good. It's not a joke to say the most notable thing about it was the sex scene. I loved that episode. I didn't find it particularly "funny" but it was highly entertaining to listen to. That's what I love about WHM. I can go into an episode of a movie I haven't seen and come out with the feeling that I just saw it.

Speaking of their intros, I LOVE the one they use for their Halloween episodes. Link: http://www.whmpodcast.com/2013/11/episode-129-post-halloween-bonus-scream.html xzoto1 fucked around with this message at 08:16 on Mar 6, 2015 |

BlameSpacePod posted:"They" of course means 1 person on the show while Chris and I both defended Looper on the air. You make my days at work enjoyable. I sit on my rear end and just laugh and work all day long. Seriously, your podcast is one of the better ones out there. I mean, we have 21 pages of discussion just on you guys. Keep on keepin' on! Also, I'm still anticipating a Surf Ninjas episode. It'd be amaaazing.

PUGGERNAUT posted:Best tangent has to be the art school guy who loves turtles and Keifer Sutherland. The rest of the episode prior to that was pretty mild on the "funny" but that entire bit made up for it. So god drat funny. Almost as funny as Louie Anderson doing television and movie remakes in their The Day After Tomorrow episode.

I think it's obvious the WHM gang reads this thread and I just wanted to say that your recent episodes have been loving stellar (not that past work isn't but you had me laughing even harder recently). Keep up the good work boys. I started this thread 1.5 years ago and we've made it through 100 pages of good discussion and hopefully plenty more will come. Also, come to Canada damnit.
