Just listening to the on-screen. What the hot gently caress is Andrew talking about "would they really make another Avengers?"? Oh gee-whiz, why would Disney want to print another billion dollars???

On the Patreon episode, Crabin said he liked Winchester, which was one of the worst reviewed movies of last year. Like this movie isn't just bad, it's boring as hell. He really is the most contrarian critic.

I’ve learned long ago that Cabin can be pretty loving funny On the podcast but his honest opinions on movies are really loving bad to the point that I just assume the opposite of almost all that f his reviews. Dude said the 4th Purge movie was ‘really very good’, and I.....just have no idea what to say.

Oh yeah! He did say that about The First Purge. That movie was a clunker.

Who were they talking about during the Endgame episode, when Steve goes on that Super-Size Me bit? Chris said he had allegations against him. Morgan Spurlock, or someone else?

Yeah, it was Morgan Spurlock. If I recall, no one ever came forward with allegations against him, he confessed his own pattern of sexual misconduct abruptly ending his own career.

Kino Lorber is a company I associate with my earliest Film History 101 classes, including watching some of the first surviving Thomas Edison films.

They are responsible for saving Nosferatu and Metropolis from the the brink of film preservation hell, giving them a wide home-entertainment release.

And now, their greatest triumph has finally come to fruition.

I have never preordered something so hard and so fast in my life.

I feel like I am the only one who screams from the internet hell depths that the WHM Tuff Turf episode is a true-blue classic.

It's also such an odd movie that burrows under your skin. It isn't a "bad movie" in the usual sense, it just seems to skate all over the line of what makes something good or bad and doesn't seem to care. It's a drat enigma.

I hate to be that guy 3 pages late but kino only released the US DVD/Blu-rays of Nosferatu and metropolis. The restorations were done by the Friedrich Wilhelm Murnau Foundation. They didn't have a hand in the restorations.

Yeah, you just need to watch it. There's nothing in the movie that is like holy poo poo wacky, but it just all adds up to something super duper strange.

I actually have a soft spot for movies about the ocean, fishing boats, coastal towns, lighthouses, etc. so I actually really liked the first 2/3 of the movie. If there had been no twist or if the twist was anything else then I would have loved the movie. Like if he was a stranded time traveler and he was marking the daily solar and ocean cycles so he could piece together where he was based on his scattershot memory or something, that would be neat. Like there was a time machine or a space ship at certain coordinates that he couldn't quite remember, and "Justice" was the ship and not a fish that he was obsessed with finding, and he was a drunk because he would never get back to his family, that would be neat even if formulaic.

But the movie as-is makes no sense: what graphics we see reflected in the screen look like The Sims or that Dreamcast fishing game. The emotional union at the end is between a boy and a computer program, not the boy and his dead father. There's no VR or mind meld that we're aware of, so the kid is literally just piloting his little avatar to his father's avatar on a computer screen. It's all dumb, but I loved the scenery, coastline, fields, boats, rain storms, etc.

Man, at this point they should just be putting on lapel mics and recording themselves or something. I don't think I've ever heard a live show that sounded great and most of them sound terrible. Didn't Eric record one on his phone recently because the club's audio setup was so bad? I know it's easy to sit here and say "they should do this and spend money!" but they're literally losing episodes because the tech setups at these locations are apparently terrible.

You can find decently rated intro setups with eight mics at B&H photo for about $400. Pipe that into a laptop and you'd at least have SOMETHING to fall back on if the club drops the ball.

Edit: And this is coming from someone who loves their regular production values. For the years and years I've listened to them their audio quality is top notch and I've always been super impressed how they sound. When other shows sounded like crap, they were some of the relatively early folks who invested in microphones that made them sound great.

I'd settle for a soundboard of their mario hoho heehees, kirby bwaoooms, and other sound effects.

Would pair well with their gif collection.

Or a Jupin LPs the latest Zelda game with the boys providing live power hour commentary.

You should listen to their earlier live shows like Cliffhanger. The current spate of live show recordings are crystal clear compared to them

I think Cabin is EXTREMELY funny but I absolutely get the vibe that he's every stereotype about guys who went to film school given flesh and is probably one of those people that's an... acquired taste.

The worst thing Cabin does is that joke where he says a movie is bad over and over comedically and that's never been funny, even in the TGWTG era of internet criticism.

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

Cabin’s strength is that he is super informed on film history, and when he can use that to contextualize a discussion or tangent on the show it helps. His biggest weakness is he doesn’t have the comedic timing of the other boys, and his jokes are often a kind of brute force endeavor.
