Been listening to this since I ran out of Mike and Tom Eat Snacks. It's pretty good! Their John Depp impression sounds like a Robin Williams impression. Probably gonna listen to Mrs. Doubtfire after I finish Secret Window.

Dragonheart is a movie part of me refuses to believe ever got a home release. I wanted to see in theatres, but my mom said she'd rent it for me when it came out on tape. I waited for so long for my little rental place in the grocery store to get it back in the day, and it never did. This was back when it took nearly a year for a movie to get its home release. I've still to this day, never seen a VHS or DVD copy of it. I'm certain I'm only an Amazon search away from finding proof of its existence, but do I really want to find this bigfoot?

I'm alright with Harry's Razors ads. They felt less scummy than the Draft Kinds ads, and shaving produces actual scum.

I dunno. The fact that The Joker loves his country is pretty funny to me. Which other first world country could neglect the mentally ill as well as America? That version of The Joker would have to be a product of Reagan's budget cuts.

If Batman & Robin and The Room are off-limits for being overdone then I can't imagine Return of the Jedi wouldn't fall under the same rule since complaining about the Ewoks and the special edition revisions are probably two of the most :regd08: things on the internet.

In that light, a Star Wars knock off would be more likely.

I didn't see Mortdecai, because no one saw Mortdecai, but based solely on the fact that Depp's last appearance on the show, Secret Window, is one of my all-time favorite episodes, I'd love to see them tackle another disastrous Depp flick.

I called in Mouse Hunt because it's still on Netflix and it's still so stupid. I was kind of tipsy when I called in so I both hope and don't hope they don't pick it.

Mouse Hunt is great. It's a live action feature length version of a classic Looney Toon. Starring Nathan Lane. What's not to love?

Happy Days and Grease were 1950s nostalgia for people in the '70s. We got That 70s show in 1998. The 80s/90s nostalgia wave is natural, yet feels exacerbated due to the Internet.

The end fight between Spider-Man and Electro was visually exciting. But otherwise, I found the movie pretty forgettable. I had completely forgotten about the whole blood plotline until rereading a plot synopsis a couple weeks ago.

If I've never watched any Star-Trek at all, will I get any enjoyment out of the Nexus shows?

I haven't listened to any of The Nexus yet, but they did a regular WHM episode on Star Trek Insurrection, so I bet that's probably a good taste of what to expect. But I'll agree with weekly font. I listen to episodes on movies that I have zero familiarity with and they're really good.

I'm pretty broke right now, but it sounds like Code Of Honor might be worth pitching in to the Patreon. Hoo boy.

Is overboard the one with a bunch of yuppies being stranded (heh) in the middle of the ocean or is that something completely different?

I think you're thinking of Open Water. Overboard is the one where Goldie Hawn is a rich woman who falls out of her yacht, gets amnesia, and Kurt Russel's trailer trash character convinces her that she's his wife to raise his kids.

Now that I think about it, 50 First Dates is like the movie's spiritual sequel in the gross amnesia dating genre.
