Why wouldn't it be your movie of the year? It's darker than the other star wars films

John Goodman was in a lot of good movies throughout the mid '80s to early '90s. I have seen True Stories before and it is one of those quirky and interesting movies from that era.

I miss comedy, likeable-schlub John Goodman. Now he is serious, intimidating John Goodman. I think "The Big Lebowski" was the last schlub role he took, right?
Oh, IGN. I liked Rogue One, but I would put most of the movies I saw this year over it (and at least three of those are Disney movies).
Speed Racer? ;P
Freaking A he was. It's too bad that movie will probably be forgotten at Oscar time.

He had his moments in 'Inside Llewyn Davis'.
I thought the movie was so-so. It wasn't terrible, and I liked the concept. It makes me want to see a full Cloverfield movie that isn't a found footage film. But John Goodman did give a great performance.

Was he schluby in Speed Racer? I haven't seen it in a few years, but I remember him as responsible parent.
I'll have to check it out.
But it wasn't a found footage film?
It wasn't a full Cloverfield movie either, which I think is his point.
Ah. I get it now.

I was talking about the original Cloverfield, which was a found footage movie. I would like to see a new Cloverfield movie that is much more conventional follow up on the original movie and this film as well. 10 Cloverfield Lane teases just enough to make me want to see a full blown Cloverfield monster movie produced by Bad Robot.

To be fair, one of the former cohosts wrote the movie. lol
I want a sequel to 10 Cloverfield Lane that's just Aliens but replace Weaver with Winstead.

I would watch that, to be honest.
I would even watch a movie that follows John Goodman's character through the monster infested world as he gets supplies for his bunker.

While that's true, not everyone of the current hosts was aware of that, afaik.

I don't know who is there now, but if Jeremy and Norm are still there, then they've worked with Gary for years even before Tested as even a thing.

Then I guess it was Kishore, but it wouldn't bet on it. Not that it matters. It's not like Tested is awful about it or the advertising on the podcast (no Lootcrate either). It's a good podcast I enjoy and their pop-culture segment is fine, too. But him nominating Rogue One as his movie of 2016 really didn't sit well with me, as he was still riding the release hype.

I mean, I stopped listening to it around the time Will left since maker/culture stuff isn't all that interesting to me, so I don't really place that much importance on their views, but I'm also not surprised that they would be fanboys as well even without the Gary Whitta connection. Norm is a guy who goes to conventions to take pictures of cosplayers, so yeah. lol

Rich does filter them though. lol

poor episodes? Some of the recent Wheel of the Worsts are some of the best episodes of BotW period.
The latest one was just ok though, but they did go through the whole wheel so these were probably the crappy tapes they had in the first batch they wanted to get rid of.
Never forget The Osteoporosis Dance.

Or the dance of birth
"Oxygenating our womb space" still cracks me up :-D

80's David Byrne looks like Moriarty on the new Sherlock.
As long as Rich stays sexier, it won't be a problem.

edit: coincidentally fucking that up reminds me of the whole argument in BotW where Mike keeps insisting the dead girl goes like "Hi, I'm Jan and I'm dead" when the actual line was "Hi, I'm dead"

That Robin Williams joke...
Also, Zendaya is obviously going to be playing Mary Jane in Spiderman: Homecoming, boys. The character absolutely will be in the movie.

Oh my goodness what a great comment.
The fact that it didn't make Rich laugh is eerie.
He laughs at everything. It's the one sure thing in life.
I think the funniest joke RLM has ever produced was when Mike said "ironically, they are nothing but bones now" at the Osteoporosis Dance.

My favorite is still the Kodak Printer Challenge. The fucking Super Mario World sound effect just kills me every time.
But yes, the Osteoporosis Dance joke is definitely up there.

It's clear they're being pessimistic for the entire video, because chances are some of the movies they are hating on in here they'll enjoy. Likely John wick 2.

I had to watch that again last night and I agree.
