The audio is not great on this week's live episode, which they admit up front. I didn't think it was too bad, except for Eric for some reason. Otherwise, a great episode that as you would expect, gets filthy almost from the start. An explanation from the guys: https://twitter.com/WHMPodcast/status/1688972887707815936?s=20 quote:The club neglected to put his mic into the mix, so the only way you can hear him is through our three mics picking up his voice through the stage monitors, meaning it had to be boosted and filtered significantly. It wasn't ideal release conditions, but we needed the week off. SilentChaz fucked around with this message at 19:05 on Aug 8, 2023 |

The guys admit at the start of this week's episode (during the in-studio) intro, since they've now done a WLM for a Robin Williams movie with The Birdcage, the gates are now open to do WHM episodes on some of his, uh, lesser works once again. (Bicentennial Man and Flubber were two of the titles mentioned.)

Good news is, most of the ads in the free feed episode this week have music so you can more easily skip past them. Bad news is, it seems like there are more of them spread throughout.  I did lol at the ad for Applebee's after a recent episode where the guys talked about how terrible it is.  Edit: Okay, maybe the same number of ads, it just feels like more because they're more spread out than in previous episodes. SilentChaz fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Sep 26, 2023 |

Fezz posted:I'm not much of a horror guy, so I've never heard of the Devil's Rain. It's got William Shatner escaping a satanic cult led by Ernest Borgnine and John Travolta in a very brief role as one of the cultists at the end. The end involves the titular rain and is goopy, but nowhere near the level of Society.

thrawn527 posted:Bushwhacked? Like, the Daniel Stern scout leader movie? Spooktacular? Bushwacked is a movie they've talked about doing more than once. According to the wiki it came up in the ep on Rookie of the Year (369), but I could swear it also came up in any episode where they covered a Daniel Stern movie.

I like the Saw movies, too, and find that they work best if you bingewatch them like a TV series. Even if the clusterfuck of parts of 3, 4 and 5 occurring at the same time makes it a little difficult to keep track.

Firstborn posted:Which episode do they discuss Dead Zone? I don't think there's a dead zone episode but im old and listened to hundreds of them over the years. Help I checked the wiki and there's no Dead Zone episode. They talk about "Dead Zoning all orphans" in the ep on Orphan. Could have also come up in one of the eps where they did Christopher Walken impressions: It's a Wonderful Life Batman Returns The Prophecy Animation Damnation 79: Garfield & Friends Dunston Checks In Forrest Gump Rookie of the Year Serenity (2019) The Stepford Wives (2004) America's Sweethearts

I will say the ad placement in the Bushwacked episode is better, in that it doesn't happen mid-sentence. Even if one of them for me was for hearing aids from a local pharmacy chain.

Putting the tweet down, and I don't know why Steve didn't check when he was on the IMDB Tribune to look up the other sequels, but the Monte Hellman-directed Silent Night, Deadly Night Chris was Silent Night, Deadly Night 3: You Better Watch Out! And the ad Andrew was talking about (which was uploaded to YouTube fifteen years ago, but first aired in 2000 ):https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9JxhTnWrKYs

One thing I really enjoy about WHM compared to other bad movie podcasts is that the guys tend to pay attention to what they're watching for the show (tall glasses of water notwithstanding) and if they miss something, one of the other guys will usually correct them. I remember HDTGM being particularly bad about this sort of thing once they realized it was popular and made episodes a frustrating listen.

I think my favorite part of Die Hard 2 (aside from seeing it at one of those "sneak previews" studios did back then a few days before the actual release to build up word of mouth; the theater was running late and the audience booed when they tried to show the Predator 2 trailer first, making them skip it ) is that it gave us one of the best sketches from The Ben Stiller Show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgSCp__lU-I "How could the same thing happen to the same guy nineteen times?" "It'll be fun, we'll go shopping, get a Christmas turkey..."

Going through my playlist of Christmas/winter episodes and I could have sworn they did an episode on The Snowman (2017) but I think I just conflated the recurring Domino's Takeout Insurance bit (which started in Traces of Red) with an actual episode on the movie. "I left you all the clues Mr. Domino's." Also, Jingle All the Way 2 being their fourth anniversary episode.

Watched some holiday appropriate movies over the weekend with my partner. One of the movies was Stigmata, so I listened to the ep the guys did again today. Early on they talk about Gabriel Byrne thinking he was going to be Keyser Soze in The Usual Suspects and all the success Kevin Spacey had after that. They go on to say, "He wishes he had everything Kevin Spacey has."

The Arrival this week is an instant classic imo simply because of the Ron Silvers of many nations. Kills me every time they add another one. French-Canadian Ron Silver is there. "Can we get some pountine for the table?"

Soup du Jour posted:Sheenpril has been far and away the best Actor Month WHM has done. It’s kind of ironic that they prefaced the whole month about it being artificial and kludged together when every episode has felt way more fluid and organic than the Snipes or Brimley months I think that's because there's more of a variety and quality to Charlie Sheen's output (before his career plummeted) than Wesley Snipes or Wilford Brimley. Weren't more than one of the Brimley movies ones where he had a supporting role? (And they'd already done some Brimley movies that would have fit in the month nicely, too.)
