Was that title card created on a Casio watch?

 

[Fantastical]

Listening halfway through and, honestly, I don't mind the lack of a guest this week. They also seem energetic, for lack of a better word, compared to the last few shows.

I've noticed that too, but they were great this week. I think for the next episode they need a guest who is very enthused about the movie they watch.

 

[GK86]

Good episode. Laughed hard a few times. I liked them not having a guest. As Jack said, barely even noticed.

CALL THE MARINES

I loved the "Yeah, I wooed you by showing you dead homeless Asian people."

Love June's robots lol.

I loving their Halloween choices. I wonder what Christmas movie they are thinking of picking.

Aside from a ton of corny ABC Family Christmas movies, I strangely can't think of very many mainstream/theatrical Christmas duds, but Jack Frost with Michael Keaton and Kelly Preston immediately came to mind.

Or Home Alone 3, or 4. (Yep, FOUR)

 

[GK86]

Funny, because the first Christmas movie I thought of was Home Alone 3. Christmas was the Kranks? Deck the Halls?

Funnily enough, the first film that came to mind was the other Jack Frost, with the murderous snowman.

I came in to say "Deck the Halls". So awful.

 

[VeryGooster]

Oh man. Dunno how I could have forgotten Surviving Christmas. How crazy would it be to follow up Reindeer Games with another Affleck Christmas movie?

 

[GK86]

I couldn't even finish it that is how terrible it was.

Oh man. Dunno how I could have forgotten Surviving Christmas. How crazy would it be to follow up Reindeer Games with another Affleck Christmas movie?

Lol, winner! Holy crap at that movie.

 

[RepairmanJack]

Oh man. Dunno how I could have forgotten Surviving Christmas. How crazy would it be to follow up Reindeer Games with another Affleck Christmas movie?

Funny thing is I looked up horrible christmas movies and skipped over that one because for some reason I had thought they had done it already. Somehow my mind fused it and Reindeer Games together.

This or Deck the Halls definitely should be picked.

 

[GK86]

Do not replace the second opinions music! It's too good as it is.

I agree 100%. I don't think anyone can top it. So good.

 

[GK86]

June is on You Made It Weird podcast.

 

[Clevinger]

great ep

I hope they do the guestless thing once in a while

favorite part was Jason's outrage at the guy offering the dirty hobo a drink from his bottle

 

[VeryGooster]

I don't know what I'm watching, but after Colbert Report there is some show on with Chris Hardwick called "At Midnight," and June and two other guests are on it. I don't know what it is, just stumbled on it.

Some kind of pop culture quiz show?

 

[GK86]

Yeah, it's a quiz show with comics. I might check it out. The movie just wants to confuse you lol.

 

[Maklershed]

Based on the guests so far and upcoming for that At Midnight show it seems a lot of the comedians are the UCB LA, Largo, Comedy Bang Bang crowd.

Speaking of comedy shows, Doug Bensons "Getting Doug With High" is great. Doug gets high on camera with comedians and they chat for a half hour and then watch a magic trick. The first guest is Jenny Slate (Super Mario Brothers episode of HDTGM). She's so cute.

 

[Lorien]

I saw Andy Daly was on. I need to check out that episode.

 

[Lorien]

Just finishing relistening to the Over the Top episode and it has entered my top 5 favorite list. Bobby M. was a great guest. I wish all the shows were live.

Mike Hawk.

Or Mike Hawks

I just showed the wife Sleepaway Camp. Her exact words, "This movie was written by a pedophile."

Truer words have never been spoken. Did you make her listen to the episode as well?

 

[Maklershed]

That movie sounded crazy. I never saw it, just listened to the episode. I couldnt even parse what happened. And now that I think of it, I think they didnt actually make fun of the movie that much .. they just debated theories of what went on with the crazy mom and who was her son and who wasnt, etc.

In other news, got Halloween 3 dvred and gonna try to get to that today. Also have After Earth and Fast Five on bluray and hope to get to at least one of them (prob AE) this weekend as well.

 

[Maklershed]

10 more days til Halloween, Halloween, Halloween

About 40 minutes in to Halloween 3. Thoughts so far ...

1. The dad is a real scumbag. He takes every opportunity he can to abandon his wife and kids. "Dad take us trick or treating!" "Nope, gonna grab a couple of beers for the road and hop in the car with some strange and then take her to a motel"

2. The daughter girl is kinda cute. Reminds me of Lydia from Breaking Bad.

3. Is no one in the town perplexed how the economy now seems to revolve around a Halloween mask company that only sells three masks?

 

[GK86]

Lol oh man, get ready for the crazy ending.

 

[Maklershed]

Just finished. My head is full of fuck. So many questions.

Was Ellie a robot the whole time?

Is this movie positing that Mike Myers is a robot?

How did the Halloween message broadcast at 9pm when the guy not only destroyed the broadcast terminal but the entire factory?

If that company can create robots so convincingly that you can't tell them apart from humans, why wouldn't they just sell those instead of halloween masks?

What happened to the CEO guy? Did he get teleported somewhere? Where?

Finally - not a question but it dawned on me shortly after my last post that the main guy in the movie was the sheriff in one of my all time favorite HDGTM movies, Drive Angry.

 

[VeryGooster]

Next week is Daredevil. Oh man.

 

[Clevinger]

man oh man oh man

I should listen to Gigli again in the mean time

 

[VeryGooster]

And for those who skip the mini episodes, the Christmas episode will be live in LA (Largo?) and they said if they sell out they'll do a second movie. ha ha

 

[GK86]

Yes, Daredevil. They should come back to NYC.

 

[VeryGooster]

my body is ready

(I had to dig this one out in another room...)

 

[Maklershed]

Glad about the pick. I've always kinda wanted to see Daredevil but knew it would be terrible but now I have an excuse to endure its terribleness.

 

[SmithnCo]

So... Theatrical Daredevil I assume.

The Director's Cut is actually a decent improvement I thought.

Edit: I look forward to their thoughts on the playground fight, I forgot how near-Catwoman levels it is.

 

[GK86]

Dammit, I thought the movie was up on Netflix somewhere. They must have taken it down.

 

[VeryGooster]

@HDTGM

For those who are asking, we will be reviewing the ORIGINAL Daredevil movie, not the director's cut. Coolio subplot not included.

 

[Man God]

They should have skipped ahead to the far less defensible Elektra.

 

[GK86]

They should have skipped ahead to the far less defensible Elektra.

They should do that one next.

 

[VeryGooster]

Someone on Twitter reminded me that Kevin Smith makes a cameo in this. oh god

 

[Lorien]

Truer words have never been spoken. Did you make her listen to the episode as well?

Yes, I did. The official HDTGM just retweeted a post by someone who's trying to understand the family tree from Sleepaway Camp. Amazing.

For some reason I thought this post was saying Smith was the guest next week and I almost cried. Worst episode ever.

Yes, please keep Smith and any Director/actor away from the guest spot.

 

[Maklershed]

I thought the Crank and Punisher directors were really interesting. Although I do wish they were on special episodes or minisodes.

The punisher Warzone episode was rad too.

 

[GK86]

For those who missed the awesomeness that is Sharknado, Netflix is set to stream it on Nov 5th.

 

[VeryGooster]

 

[GK86]

Lol ohh man, what a picture.

 

[Maklershed]

Oh shit! I forgot to watch Daredevil. Don't suppose its free or streaming anywhere?
