My Lovely Horse posted:Wayne's World comes to mind immediately, but I've got a feeling some other movie aped it more the way you say, too. I don't think it's Wayne's World, though they did similar gags where they tried out different endings. Not the answer, but anyone who hasn't seen Adaptation should definitely do so. It's like that movie smashes the fourth wall almost inconspicuously, builds a fifth wall, and takes that one down, too.

Ah, yeah, we used to have a super small tv and radio unit it had a handle and you could pick the whole thing up easily. It had probably a 6" screen on it, obviously b&w. poo poo, if we had kept that, I wonder if I'd be able to sell it for anything. Edit: it was very similar to this, but I'm pretty sure the screen was on the right. Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 15:59 on Aug 17, 2020 |

Edit: ^^^^  banned from Starbucks posted:Anyone remember this horror film from uh....not too long ago. maybe 3-4 years. Two kids, a girl and a boy, go visit their grandparents who are crazy or something. Only scenes I really remember are the grandpa pulls down his pants, takes off his diaper and smears it into the boys face. I think they maybe try to shove the girl into an oven too. Also a chase under some part of the house where the grandma runs like a spider. I haven't seen it, but it is definitely The Visit

Mine might be a tv show, but here goes... No idea what the plot is, but during the thing, there's an announcer or news anchor, maybe like an Andy Rooney type, and at the end, he signs off with saying "and that's... alls I know." Cut to later on, someone who's been fed up with him just absolutely blasts him with "and it's not" ALLS"!! It's "ALL" !!!" I mean, maybe it's a Mary Tyler Moore thing, maybe it's Murphy Brown? Oh poo poo, maybe it IS Murphy Brown... Gonna check now, but I'll leave this post here in case it's not and someone can help me. Edit: Yep, it's from Murphy Brown, the episode" The Fifth Anchor". Wallace Shawn played the guy saying "alls". Rupert Buttermilk fucked around with this message at 14:40 on Nov 3, 2020 |

The_Doctor posted:Watching Soul has reminded me of an American 80s film. I think it’s got observers from the afterlife watching a guy on earth go through various trials and they’re doing VO commentary on how he’s doing. The two observer voices are a man and a woman. Not quite what you've mentioned but there was a sitcom about almost the same thing, called "Herman's Head".

Finnish Flasher posted:I remember the ending of some horror/slasher/thriller and the basic premise. Young adults somehow end up at an old mansion, they start dying violently. In the end I think they revealed that at least two of them lured them all into the house to kill them, and there's cameras everywhere and people can pay to see the videos or something. It ends with one woman trapped in some room and she's crying because it's only the two murderers left and there's nothing she can do. This part reminds me of "My Little Eye", but the rest of it doesn't quite match.

Finnish Flasher posted:This is it! Thanks! One standout aspect of this film is that it was made in eastern Canada. There's a deleted scene that has a shot from inside a fridge, and it shows a McCain's juice box pretty prominently. The movie was unremarkable for me, outside of that.

SimonChris posted:I am looking for a movie about a guy who travels to a US state looking for a dude who disappeared down there years earlier. The local authorities try to sabotage him because they were complicit in killing the dude or lynching or something. In the end, the main character defeats the bad guys by figuring out that they have been stealing his mail, which makes it a federal matter! It's not exactly like it but The Knockaraound Guys hits some of those marks.

Megaman's Jockstrap posted:Yes, it is very odd when you see something that got stuck in your brain 30 years prior but haven't revisited since. Really shows the fallibility of memory. Oh god, it's the craziest poo poo, especially when you're around someone who has zero attachment to whatever you've just unearthed. I had been searching for years for an old Captain Kangaroo episode, and when I finally saw it, uploaded a month prior oddly enough, I was almost in tears, partially from way more nostalgia than I expected, partially from the relief and validation that I didn't just make it up. For reference my white whale was this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdxDWEu99w0 Not the whole episode, but the Famous Amy part where she goes on some huge journey was the bit that I was trying to find.

I was in complete shock at one particular aspect that relates to the accuracy / fallibility of memory though. I just listened to it, so I'd love to hear your take on it, especially what you're referring to that I've bolded. Was that the Prince thing? That reminded me so much about when Trent Reznor realized he'd accidentally ripped off, for lack of a better term, David Bowie's 'Crystal Japan' when he wrote 'A Warm Place'

Megaman's Jockstrap posted:Yes the joke was that Simmons was a very obvious confirmed bachelor, it was gay bashing and nothing more. Remember that gays had no representation at all beyond campy weirdos like "Serge" in Beverly Hills Cop or "Hollywood" in Mannequin or w/e so the idea of a feminine eccentric gay person was a novelty that could get cheap laughs. One that people still largely hadn't gotten over until sometime after Brokeback Mountain, sadly. Wasn't that also kind of Charles Nelson Reilly's thing, or am I misremembering?

Hannibal Rex posted:I'm not sure if it was an erotic thriller, but now I remember a scene from some mid-90s TV movie that had a send-up of Basic Instinct, where the femme fatale reassured a bunch of interrogating detectives that, yes, she was wearing underwear, and then proceeded to deduce what kind of underwear each of them was wearing. That sounds like a Leslie Nielsen and/or Mel Brooks-style genre parody movie.

ruddiger posted:If we’re doing television shows, I have one that’s bugging me to the point I’m convinced it doesn’t exist. I remember a live-action wrap around segment for the Nintendo cartoons from the 80s, specifically for Captain N, the host was an 80s kid who presented the shows from his basement hangout. I can’t find any evidence this was ever made, and it being Nintendo related, you’d think it would be easy to find if it was real. Maybe you're instead thinking of Wake Rattle & Roll? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQyQLqdAUQo This show was the main... vehicle.... for a Wacky Races spin-off, Fender Bender 500. Maybe that's what you're thinking of? Edit: I have one: violent gangster movie, and there's a character in it named Sugarman. I'm actually having an unexpectedly hard time finding this.

I may be combining elements from several of the same filmmaker's movies, I think the showing was a double feature? I just need a push in the right direction. I have no idea, but this reminds me that I'd love to see Chuck Palahniuk's "Rant" made into a movie.

Bootleg Trunks posted:I thought it was return to oz but it's something else from that era. I'm pretty sure it's a kids fantasy movie where one of the characters is a frog man. Live action. That's about all I can remember. The ones off the top of my head are Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, and The Neverending Story. I'm most familiar with the last one, and I'm trying to remember a frog man. Closest I can think of is when Deep Roy was riding a huge snail that had a goofy face.

Two tv shows, both from back in the late 80s or early 90s... 1) it was entirely or almost entirely puppets in a medieval setting. Might've been based on Robin Hood, not sure. 2) Edit: ok, so I had no idea that The Waterville Gang was made in the 70s, so my other requests might have also been made then.

Jordan7hm posted:There’s this short film I watched probably 15 years ago on Showcase. It’s a short heist movie where the protagonist is one of the other crooks’ dumb brother or friend or something. They’re robbing a bank and you see the other crooks being a dick to the protagonist and then everything goes wrong. Then it tracks backward and you see that actually he intentionally causes it all to go wrong, and he gets away, I think with the money. That ALMOST sounds like "Before the Devil Knows You're Dead", but not quite. poo poo, I need to rewatch it, plus the one you're talking about, if it's discovered.

regulargonzalez posted:Dougie is better on a rewatch. First time through you'll just so primed for Cooper's return that you can't fully appreciate Dougie. Just watched s3 with my gf (my second watch, her first) and she hated Cooper not being in it, I enjoyed it way more than I did the first time. He's just such a wonderfully charming force of good in the first two seasons, and you genuinely don't get ANY of that until, what, two episodes from the end of S3? Meanwhile, you've got idiot Coop and Absolute Bastard Coop, both of which pale in comparison. Miss Michael Ontkeen, too. Ah well. Anyway, sorry for the detail.
