I don't know if its entirely kosher to do this in a WHM post, but I've found a new (goon-run) movie podcast that I've fallen in love with - This Was Rad. Two dudes talking about 80s movies, with one of theirs 14yo daughters. It's legitimately funny and interesting to see movies that WHM-type folks eat up through the mind of the younger generation. E: vvv I haven't gotten to that one, but outside of some volume issues on their site I haven't had any audio issues.  Not all podcasts are using great tech...

Indolent Bastard posted:These guys are awfully upset by the Max Landis Mary-Sue thing. If you don't agree, just move on, but mocking Max and the fact that Rey is a Mary-Sue is really dorky. I love the guys, but remember: they talked about tears looking at Chewbacca crying after Hans death, as well as some obvious self consciousness over how the best way to make them happy about a Star Wars film was to copy-paste ANH. Less upset, more defensive. People will bring up Rey As Character Great At Everything And Loved By Everyone, or how TFA is ANH2.0, for as long as the movie is discussed.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:I assumed they were talking about the series as a whole. The first one didn't even have much more story than the original Mega Man games.  The first one absolute absolutely had more story than the original Mega Man. You had actual characters with actual dialogue propelling the plot forward.

I noticed that too. I think the "player" for those early ones is just your browser's default when opening an mp3, and the pausing/freezing comes from your browser not buffering the full track as it goes along.

Lumberjack Bonanza posted:Okay so my suspect list is MisterBibs and thrawn. Saw 100 new posts to this thread, and figured that it was response to the mailbag. I didn't listen to either their take or the resulting mailbag, so you're wrong. Hell, this came up when they were in town, randos and I were talking with Jupin about any episodes we've never watched, and I told him that the only two episodes or theirs I've not listened to was their GL episode and their BvS, and explained to his face that I didn't need to hear an hour of "Not My Superman" and getting mad at a successful tentpole movie. He didn't seem all "you have to hate this movie" when we briefly talked about it and other comic movies. MisterBibs fucked around with this message at 02:44 on May 2, 2016 |

No, I explained that I couldn't listen to that one because I really wanted that to be better than it was, and it's bright points (design) was wasted, and it's still a  spot for me. BTW, the guys are super approachable after live shows. They went up to people to thank even for showing up, which of awesome cuz I'm far too shy to walk up to closest-thing-to-celebrities I've been around.

I disagree with them on the Beast/Leech scene, I actually liked how Grammer pulled off the reaction to seeing his human hand. Part shock, part "holy poo poo I didn't realize how much I've wanted to see this until right now".

Plus, from what I understand, his stage coach job was one of the most dangerous to drive both in terms of terrain and potential for coachrobbing, so if he was at all damaged, he wouldn't have been able to do it.

I was just adding something I recall reading about the dude. I want to say it was an article debunking the "he was entirely a different person" urban legend, and they went into detail on how if he wasn't at least vaguely functional, there was no way he'd be able to be a stagecoach driver for a notoriously dangerous route.

Maybe it was my past with writing SCP stuff, but I liked the idea behind The Happening. Something causing plants around the globe to emit something that makes humans apathetic to the point of ignoring self-care is terrifying. People who aren't healthy start dying off, and society only starts paying attention when more people are just  ing to death, and society just slowly fades away because it's too late to stop it. Lumberjack Bonanza posted:on the other side of the coin no one else liking Unbreakable, somehow. Unbreakable, time-wise, before the superhero movie boom, right? I could see people finding out the twist and thinking "ugh, so he's basically Superman, whatever". Guy Mann posted:Shyamalan's run from Sixth Sense to Signs was really great and it was even understandable that people were calling him the next Hitchcock based on the strength of those movies. It's a shame his ego got the best of him I'm not going to deny that his ego played a part, but I'd say a big part of it was him beginning to believe the press about him, to say nothing about studios giving him carte blanche because of every critic and Sundance cinephile calling him the next Hitchcock.

TheFallenEvincar posted:Wonder why they stopped sticking in little clips of music and bits of the movie they're referencing? I guess once they got too big there's the risk of getting an ep taken down for that? Or am I totally wrong I think it's a cross between effort, as someone else posited, and the risk of copyright protection snafus. Maybe them no longer doing it coincides with the time when YouTube/etc started going "hey internet critics, stop using our poo poo for your own poo poo"?

It's been forever since I've seen it, but I recall this moment where Invisible Kevin Bacon splashes water on his face, and for a second he can see his face and I think he briefly has a "oh poo poo what have I done" look, counterpointing his earlier "When you can't look at your face, you start to not give a poo poo a bit what you do" line. Two unrelated experiences from listening to random old episodes: - It might be because I didn't much care for any of the other ones, but I really liked New Nightmare (watched it last night) and I don't think the hosts got some or it. They act like Robert Englund leaves the picture randomly, but it's clear he's getting plagued to a degree by Not Freddy like Heather is, and he's just getting out while the getting is good. - I learned what triggering is when Eric described Diablo as a game of dudes trying to collect and shove a Demon Crystal in their foreheads.

Jiro posted:http://www.whmpodcast.com/2017/03/episode-294-power-rangers.html?m=1 Half an hour in, and they are completely lost on a basic sexting plot point. Did they really need that explained more, or was that a joke? E: and they entirely think a character who leaves the house, starting the plot, does so because his parents were arguing about him, has only a father. I'm beginning to wonder if they were drinking tall glasses of water while watching this. "Why didn't they call down to see if people down there are OK?" Because the scene starts with people down there saying they were OK. MisterBibs fucked around with this message at 06:38 on Mar 28, 2017 |

The image of Brian Cranston lying in the mud babbling alien language, a kids/teen film opening with a character jerking off a bull, etc. That's the thing, none of it is 'baffling' in the slightest.

Tiny Brontosaurus posted:Whoa, what paywall bullshit? I quit listening to that podcast once it shifted to being like 90% live episodes that were 90% crowdwork. They decided they could charge for that? Anything past 6mo old now is locked away. They announced it a year in advance, or something, but didn't say anything else until the day where everything older went away. I think I read that they did some changes, but whatever. I was kinda over the show anyway, just because the movies they were covering weren't motivating enough to actually listen to. It's a problem I have with WHM, sometimes, too.

Tender Bender posted:I finished it and Elizabeth Banks covered in dirt eats hobo tooth fillings and gold jewelry to create a gold monster, and you're defending this movie. Yup, because it's an enjoyable movie that they would've missed why she was stealing gold because they were using the bathroom or missed the line because they were writing down a joke about the previous scene. Oh, and that joke is predicated on missing what happens in that scene, too. I like the podcast as much as the next guy, but not all their episodes are winners. This one wasn't.

This goes beyond WHM, but it's always a pet peeve when podcast hosts have something they want to say before the point of the episode (be it ads or something else) and don't provide a time code to the actual meat. I hate playing the "how long should I hold the skip button to skip the flotsam but not the content?" game.

Because a lot of podcasters, WHM included sometimes, don't just read the copy they are given, but elaborate on it enough just to be annoying and no longer "not that long to start with". Making gags and riffs about needing to shave isn't going to make me want to get Harry's stuff more. Read the damned copy.
