It's absolutely better but like 2 is more than 0.

Even after reading the Wikipedia page for JP3 I still remember none of it. I can remember bits of JP2. That's how much worse 2 is.

Even Spielberg sleepwalking, and supposedly not directing all of it, turned in something more memorable than JP3. Lost World is no great shakes, and has some awful moments, but it has a handful of great sequences.

JP3 is mediocre at worst. And the pterodactyl scene is pretty fun. JP2 is just plain bad.

Nothing can redeem that gymnastics scene in JP2. Nothing.

For the Angel of Death spread his wings on the blast,
And breathed in the face of the foe as he passed;
And the eyes of the sleepers waxed deadly and chill,
And their hearts but once heaved, and for ever grew still

I just absolutely lost it at work over the out-of-left-field conflation with "Do the Right Thing" in the Nukie episode, so this is as good a time as any to thank this thread for introducing me to the podcast. The cast's film knowledge (and the absence of bad guests) really elevates this over HDTGM.

For anyone else just starting in, I recommend Jack Frost and Mrs. Doubtfire as great places to begin.

I never listen to HDTGM at all anymore because the WHM guys are way more "the kind of people I hang out with already". HDTGM is only ever as good as the jokes they write, because as far as I can tell Paul Scheer and Jason Mantzoukas are really annoying guys.

e: my listener request is Star Trek 5. I rewatched that last night because my girlfriend has never seen it and holy poo poo, it's just so hilarious in ways I never really caught before or had forgotten, like the Uhuru scene (you know which one)

Does the 10 year rule still apply for Listener Request Month? Because apparently he was also in A Million Ways to Die in the West.

But my money is on Stealth. I remember liking Stealth but I was also like 13 or 14 when I saw it so I wouldn't be shocked if it's garbage.

I am almost positive it is and million ways to die in the west would be in worst of 2015, and his scene in Million was just a cameo as Django. If the 10 years is ignored Amazing Spider-man 2 is also possible.

It's not Listener Request it's Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza which, I believe, 10 year rule still applies to.

When do they do their Listener Request Month? I want them to do Punisher: War Zone.

They do them a bit randomly, but I'd expect the next one will be after the summer blockbuster month(s).

And JP2 took a well respected and beloved movie, and then flushed it. JP3 is just another bland adventure movie.

It was long enough ago that I may have forgotten it being a real attempt at a blockbuster, but I seem to remember Stealth's marketing push was somewhat lukewarm. Like the studio focus tested it, realized they were sitting on cinematic garbage, but since there was that much money levied, it couldn't be completely dropped. It just sort of limped into theaters.

Whatever happened, it came across to me at the time as a brainless middling action film that looked perhaps a bit too shiny for how it was positioned.

Looking at Foxx's IMDB page, a lot of his recent output could be WHM material in terms of being bad movies, although I know they shy away from unfunny comedies for obvious reasons. I totally forgot Bait was a thing, although it's definitely not a blockbuster.

Also, on IMDB one of the plot keywords for Any Given Sunday is "male pubic hair". :wtc:

Here's the thing, I'm a feminist.





I saw Stealth in theaters, and that thing became a beautiful hate-watch in a hurry. Imagine if the same disregard for facts and reality from The Core was applied to aeronautics, ballistics, artificial intelligence, the Korean DMZ and music piracy of all goddamn things. I've been meaning to rewatch it lately, maybe this'll be my motivating excuse.

Master of Disguise is completely unwatchable.

You know that podcast where the Australian guys watched Grown Ups 2 once a week for a year? Well now they're doing Sex and the City 2. If they do it a third time, they should do Master of Disguise. Unless it drives them to suicide.

fake edit: It's called "Worst Idea of All Time", which only cements that Master of Disguise is the movie they really should be doing.

Well how bad could it...

quote:

The best implication of seriously out there sex poo poo is the creepy minute long scene at the end where an executive of “Black Markebay” auction house asks Devlin about whether a Master of Disguise could dress up as Britney Spears and other “hot” celebrities. This sick gently caress even asks about his ability to dress up as the Olsen Twins who were just 16 at the time. THIS MOVIE IS PG AND A GROWN rear end MAN IS INQUIRING ABOUT HAVING A THREESOME WITH MAN ROLE PLAYING AS TWO SIXTEEN YEAR OLD GIRLS. These characters are animals whose robust sexual appetites can only be satiated with carnal knowledge found within the depths of our very being! They probably get down in ways that Michel Foucault couldn’t even fathom.
