What comes completely out of nowhere in this 1930s cartoon is one of the hobos removes his shirt to show this huge NRA logo tattooed across his chest. It isn't referenced in any way. It's just blatantly there. It's so weird.

Completely different NRA. It's a reference to the National Recovery Administration and that imagery turned up in a lot of places at the time. Check out the credits for the Marx Bros' Duck Soup, for example.

What was the joke?

Probably some version of a joke about a woman secretly having a penis. They used that one a lot, and those jokes weren't particularly funny even without taking transphobia into account.

I figured it was something more offhand like this, but yikes. During the opening dream when Trinity is falling to her death, there's this shot of her grimacing face and he says [something I refuse to quote]

:whitewater:

Not that I'm in any position to judge such things, but that's way worse than the one they cut from Laser Mission. It's really mean-spirited, and not even the funny kind of mean-spirited.

Yeah, it’s definitely on the bad side of trans phobic jokes. Not like on the good side, a spectrum I keep in my head at all times

I was talking about mean-spirited jokes in general. Transphobic jokes are never good, but some are worse than others. Less worse doesn't mean good.

Biker gangs wearing Nazi bullshit is a whole weird thing that comes, IIRC, from motorcycle culture having foundations in 1950s societal dropouts who were frequently WW2 vets themselves.

This week's riff, Apex Predators, is extremely weird. It feels like a movie made from parts. Also stars Mel Novak!

And they sliced out 20 percent of the film.

Yes, they did and it probably included something terrible like the racist cabbie from Time Chaser or something else too sexist or violent they felt like they could make jokes about.

That's not how they cut films. They edit out random unoffensive things just to get the runtime down.

Googling a bad movie and knowing about doesn't give you exclusive dibs, everyone can find bad movies and talk about them

Case in point: I saw Bog long before those fat pantloads at RLM even thought about their first monkeycheese joke about murdering women.

The newest short is "The Tale of Baby Moose." It is identical to "The Tale of Moose Baby" except someone redubbed it so that the title animal is called Baby Moose instead of Moose Baby.

Yeah. I laughed so hard but at the same time I wanted the makers of that film in jail or at least given a big fine.

Anything where they don't edit it to poo poo and back before riffing it.

It's just bizarre how Mike and Conor will record 180 minute podcasts about self-published books but can't write 90 minutes of jokes for a movie.
