I’m kinda disappointed that I can’t use “Alright, nut! Great scene everyone!” in conversation because I think it’s super clever within the comedy of this episode.

What's the deal with 10? It's before my time, never seen it, but I still could have told you "Bo Derek and Dudley Moore on the beach". I just watched the trailer and it looks so weird and creepy. What the hell is it and how did it leave such a mark?

Will WHM interrupt the regular schedule to do a current film review like they've done every March so far? I want them to tear into Ready Player One.

They do on-screens pretty regularly. BvS was so significantly bad that they made it a full episode while it was still in theaters. If RPO is as miserable as it appears to be shaping up to be, I could see them doing the same.

There's also always Worst Of Month. But I feel like one of those weeks will already be reserved for Dear Dictatorquote:When political turmoil forces a British-Caribbean dictator (Michael Caine) to flee his island nation, he seeks refuge with his pen pal, a rebellious teenage girl (Odeya Rush) in suburban America, and teaches her how to start a revolution and overthrow the "mean girls" in her high school.

Andorra posted:There's also always Worst Of Month. But I feel like one of those weeks will already be reserved for Dear Dictator See, this, on paper, sounds like it could be absolutely hilarious. And I suppose, in the hands of a skilled satirist like your Armando Ianuccis and Charlie Brookers and Chris Morrises, it could've been. It just reads like squandered potential.

Re-listening to old episodes, and drat is Antitrust a hidden gem. “Uh, sorry guys. The negotiations with Sugar Ray fell through. We’re going to have to go with Everclear.” “What the gently caress?! I hate Art Alexakis! Alright, fine. But he can’t sing about his dad!” “They’re all about his dad!” Also: BurtonWorld and “Helena Bonham Bumper Cars.”

Fart City posted:Re-listening to old episodes, and drat is Antitrust a hidden gem. They describe the movie as 90's runoff and that's a fact! I love how the producers realized the .com trend in movie titles was passed its prime (even in 2001) and opted to call it Antitrust instead of 'Conspiracy.com'. Also my favourite line from that episode: "You can’t be the boy who cried 'diarrhea'."

I actually watched I Know Who Killed Me in the lead-up to the episode, and by god it's a rough sit. I don't know if I'd call it "barely a movie" but it's sure as poo poo in that zip code. It's hard to talk about because it's a maelstrom of nonsense, just one awful example of writing, acting and filmmaking after another, and it doesn't have a coherent narrative to give you sure footing in the storm. It's absolutely awe-inspiring and I'd recommend it in the way I'd recommend Foodfight, Master of Disguise or the Star Wars Holiday Special - it's an uniquely abrasive experience.

They're completely correct when they say it shares some DNA with Butterfly Effect. It's as IN YOUR FACE EDGY but somehow more nonsensical.

I loved the return of the Butterfly Effect stoners in this episode. In a way this episode is like a spiritual sequel to Butterfly Effect.

I might like it more on a relisten but this might be why I don't like this as much as Butterfly Effect even as I was expecting a legendary episode.

AceOfFlames posted:As multiple reviews pointed out at the time, when you literally have ART BELL show up in the middle of the movie to essentially EXPLAIN WHAT’S HAPPENING, your movie has PROBLEMS. Well now hold on, first you've gotta search Ask.com for "bleeding wounds unexplained" which takes you to the search results for "stigmata" and then you gotta click on a picture which brings up a pop-up of Art Bell explaining paranormal twin phenomenon. Now this is after Crabman from My Name is Earl gives Lindsay Lohan a robot arm of course, a cinematic trope we're all familiar with by this point, but before Lindsay Lohan correctly guesses (apropos of nothing) that Aubrey died during childbirth and the dad bought a twin from a crackwhore to replace her and somehow nobody from the hospital to the mother to god almighty noticed. It's like Chekov said, if you have a dejected piano teacher in the first act, they have to have a glass furnace in their basement next to a room full of false legs hanging from the ceiling in the third act.

I think Tarzan the Ape Man was actually the worst movie this month. I Know Who Killed Me might objectively be worse but at least they could make a coherent episode out of it.

The one thing they didn't mention in this episode that I wish they did was the point at the end of the movie where Dakota's artificial leg starts running out of power, at which point it seems to increase in weight and keep her from running. Bear in mind that this isn't like a full leg replacement, it's just a regular below-the-knee prosthetic that (for some reason) she needs to plug into the wall at night.
