The Love Guru is very forgettable.
I saw the whole thing twice, I'm pretty sure I didn't fall asleep or anything but I can't recall anything but Myers in his outfit and bad accent.

It's not a film you laugh at. All you get out of it is the horrible context for lines you'd otherwise never even recognize as a reference in your everyday life.

Oh, well, that's all water under the bridge, as I always say. Water under the bridge!

The only amusing thing about The Love Guru is all the nonsense BTS stuff that came out about Myers being a Kubrickian perfectionist on set of his dumbass dick n’ balls movie.

What was the idea behind it? To basically go through the different cultural stereotypes from around the world? Like Austin Powers lampooned British culture, so Indian culture was next? And he’d have a series of characters from around the world that would unite in a huge movie event? The Mike Myers Universe?

Apparently Myers got like, deeply into Eastern Philosophy and became friends with Deepak Chopra. The Love Guru, weirdly, is like his... homage to all of that? The whole thing was a big passion project for him.

I don’t remember what they said?

They've mentioned multiple times not liking the two Raid movies. In both instances the complaint boiled down to "it was the same scene for 90 minutes" which is very ?????? to me since they're the only ones I've ever heard make that complaint about that movie but they're also completely united about it.

Old Town Road to EGOT

So I just got out of seeing Replicas, the new Keanu Reeves movie that got unceremoniously dumped into theaters with barely any marketing at all.

:staredog: :lol:

I don't want to jump the gun and say that this is 2019's The Book of Henry, especially since we're not even halfway through loving January, but it's similarly misguided and just completely batshit insane. It was so bad but I just couldn't help but laugh through most of it because of how crazy the choices the movie makes are.

A brief outline of what it's about :
Keanu works as a scientist at (what he thinks is) a biomed company. His wife and 3 kids are killed in a car crash. He's the lone survivor. He barely even sheds a tear for them before he decides to clone his family. Thomas Middleditch who plays his work buddy helps him out with this. Together they steal millions of dollars worth of research equipment from their company, and since Keanu doesn't have a generator at his house, he goes around the neighborhood stealing car batteries to hook up the equipment to. Their company only has 3 pods and Keanu has 4 people he wants to save, SO HE LITERALLY WRITES DOWN THE NAMES OF HIS DEAD FAMILY MEMBERS ON SHEETS OF PAPER, PUTS THEM INTO A BOWL AND RANDOMLY PICKS WHICH OF HIS KIDS GETS TO LIVE. HIS YOUNGEST DAUGHTER DOESN'T GET CHOSEN SO HE DELETES HER MEMORY OUT OF THE BRAINS OF HIS WIFE AND OTHER 2 KIDS.

And it gets even crazier from there. I just...I'm completely at a loss as to how this thing got made hahahahahaha :allears:

This is EXACTLY the kind of movie WHM would cover and have a loving field day with.

If you enjoy bad movies, absolutely go see this and do it soon because it'll probably leave theaters in a week or 2. There was literally one other person in the theater with me on opening night.

Replicas is extremely YMMV but I had a great time. It's Igor taking the abnormal brain played straight. Every decision is ridiculous but not unreasonable as a quick and easy solution. Also the sound design is hosed up so a few scenes sound like they are outdoors or you should be worried about birds flying through a window.


I believe it's out on VOD if you are not in America. Have a tall glass of water and watch with friends.

I am getting pretty tired of Eric’s constant suicide jokes. His gimmick has evolved into this weird self-loathing thing that honestly makes me a little bit uncomfortable.

I agree, but it's pretty in sync with my sense of humor, and I know a lot of people find that kind of stuff pretty distasteful.

Going to call in with Robot Jox like I do every year. I used to watch it all the time as a kid. I'm afraid to watch it again to find out how bad it was, but from what I remember it should be perfect for the show

It is kind of amazing in a movie about time travel/future sight, suitcase nukes, worldwide assassin and terrorist networks, and the CIA that the absolutely most unbelievable thing is Jessica Beil and Nick Cage hooking up. Like, even in the film logic of the movie, it's unbelievable.
