Have they done any films with Ronald Reagan before, or is there a tiny chance that this will be the first film on WHM to star a U.S. President?

Red Bones posted:Have they done any films with Ronald Reagan before, or is there a tiny chance that this will be the first film on WHM to star a U.S. President? Seems unlikely they'll do a Reagan. Apart from The Conquerors I think the earliest film they've done was some anti-drug film from the 60s. I think anything earlier than about 1970 means they get into the "yikes, it must have been a different time then" territory. I mean there are internet-critic standards like Song of the South and that 1930s film about a child bride but that's one "wtf were they thinking?" and you can't do 70min of that. There seem to be areas they've avoided: a) pre-1970 films b) unfunny comedies c) foreign films I can't see how WHM could tackle them.

Evil Mastermind posted:So I've never seen TCM:TNG. Are the Illuminati actually name-dropped in the movie? Well... yes they do,though there a bit coy at first talking about a government conspiracy that dates back thousands of years before they mention the I word. Also in at least one cut of the film they also claim to be aliens who are working for the illuminati (I'm serious) I think that was what Eric was talking about with that commenter who mentioned purple blood. Oh and they also claim that Leatherface killed JFK, and there's some other really wacky stuff they talk about. There's also a bunch of scenes where the canibillies just start jumping about making noises and slapping themselves. I think everyone whose seen the original should watch the Next Generation because words fail to convey just how much of a confused mess of a film it is.

Noughty invisible man/chimney sweep, poltergeist woman, and Hamsterman form a new league of extraordinary gentlemen E: their arch nemesis is Michael Caine, codename RIO E2: Quest to find Europe's greatest lost treasure, a completed Christopher Lambert fanclub punch card E3: I just realized, I think all of those are Steve Sajdak bits. Eric's the king of non sequitur oneliners, but I guess Sajdak is the creative powerhouse behind the WHM Cinematic Universe, question mark? tin can made man fucked around with this message at 02:23 on Oct 27, 2016 |

One of the best things about re-listening to old episodes is how you develop an appreciation for how different and yet equally genius their contributions are.

I totally believe the Brown Bunny story because I also had lovely(?) parents who would take my sister and I to "artistic" films when we were younger. I didn't understand a lot of The Night Porter, but it definitely stuck with me!

Hamsterman was the hardest I've laughed at WHM since the LA live shows. Sajdak is the king of creating ridiculous characters with the right prompts. He reminds me of myself if I was way funnier.
