Please.
I'm
What's going on, what's going on-on?
And this is the show.
March the 25th, boy, a lot of people were busting over the weekend.
Hope it made you feel good.
Or you were, you know, getting non-pilled maybe.
I don't know what was going on.
Or maybe you spent your entire weekend wrapped up in the clutches of March madness.
but. But I got some friends to bring in today. I got a lot to review. I get three big buds to help in first up. Oh,
he was busting all weekend. Eric Siska. Oh my God. It's one of my favorite things to do. And also
clutches of March Madness, not related to basketball, but those are in me.
The urge to kill Rising. Oh, my God. I think about murder every day. Don't
doesn't everyone?
In the chat in the chat
Maybe every other day.
You're going to incriminate yourself
And
Coming in hot
A brand new book
You know him, you love him
Mr. Christopher Cabin
The final coup de cross
That I had anticipated
With fear
Now because of reality
The kitchen door
Was met with a
Oh, can't say that
Okay
Oh yeah, you know what?
Oh, I just realized
you'd better
we're reading Lennie Bruce now.
is this uh, we're reading books
is a silent silent study hall here.
Let me. Oh, you're
jack in my bit. Thank you.
Good. Yes.
Silent study hall.
Okay. Talent card.
We got to get to him one day.
See, clearly though, you keep your face
than the thing. You, you care more about
the vision.
Uh, big ups to folk
in the folks in the chat here.
Kate G. Fortune's daughter.
A good friend Jen Stansfield's hanging out.
Skinny Menace.
Rob Griffin. Captain Lopsides. I'm so Rachel Tater, what's up? Hope you all had a great, great weekend. Eddie Failson, of course, sucked. Love all the classics like Eddie Failson and sucked. I'm a big sucked fan. Sucked fan. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. Absolutely. Should say Steve Sadec busted in a containment unit right now. That's right. Indecent.
exposure in lower Manhattan, we got to get him out. We got a movement. No, I think, like William Atherton's
I think we should keep him in there. He's better there to keep himself. Maybe one day we can cure whatever
made him a ghost and that would make, but for now, keep him in there. Let him. Keep him in the containment unit.
Exactly.
Then bounce off the walls. That's what you need. Until we find a cure for being a ghost, which in Steve's case was 47.
stab wounds to the back. You look. We're up to 23. We got some. We got to get to the dead.
up. Remembering the dead. Always the first slot with onscreen live birthday wishes. Remembering the dead this week would have been 113 years old.
Jack Ruby. Oh my God. Here. Seen here shooting Lee Harvey Oswald to death. But that's not even. Do you get a face? Do you have a face pick?
of, I just wanted to show that one. Patriot. Let me see. Let me see. I was like,
this one will be funnier. Let me see, Chris Cabin. Because I know you'll be actually, you know what. I don't know if I know what Jack
Ruby actually looks like. I just know that Danny Iello played him once. He looks like every, you know,
and Brian Doyle. I forgot of Brian Doyle. Of course, the king. He looks like all of us. Jack Ruby is all of us.
happy birthday
sir
king he's a king and hell
depending upon what you talk to
yeah you know what he's doing all right
speaking of some other heroes today
Bonnie Medea turned 78
Sir Elton John
76 years old
we will be returning to her on Melrose
Place soon enough but a big happy
62nd birthday to Marsha Cross
happy birthday
that's right um, um, um, um, um, um, um, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, but a big old 50th, happy birthday to SJP herself, Sarah Jessica Parker.
And the love of screech powers life, Lark Voorhe's turns 50 from saved by the bell.
Lisa Turtle from saved by the bell. Of course. Big five, oh, man, you know, you, when we were
coming up watching all the saved by the bell, I would never think one day they'd be 50 and I'd be
also older. That's, that's the way. That's the way. That's the way. That's the way.
Right. You know, uh, uh, Melro 2.0. We recap 902 and Melrose place. And now Luke Perry has departed as
well. That's right. That's right. Eric, people asking in the chat, if you have any tattoos of Jack
Ruby. Not yet. No. Oh, no. He would not. He's not going to be smirch his body. That's not going to be
Well, I got a Lee Harvey on my Lee Harvey. Hey now. Is that's that's a cocking? It's a
It's a tasteful tattoo. The cock ring represents the magic bullet through Kennedy's head. I see. Okay. Oh, sure. There you go. Different terminology. Okay. Sure. Got it. Got it. Got it. It's a roadmap of pain down there. I'll tell you. It sure is. A lot of roadmaps to
today, including at the box office. Look at that non-transition. Let's take a look at the numbers. This is gross.
surprising at number five. Arthur the king. Mark Wolper's a dog adventure movie. I'm not making too much of his
week two. Just another 4.4 mil. Look at 15 mil total. This movie, this, the dog plays fetch with him because
he's so stupid. He's the dog in the scenario, right? I think that's the case. Yeah, he's doing all
it. It's stupid human tricks. Like I don't love it. If that was the movie, I would have seen it. That
The way it is now. How can 15 million not be close to how much? I'm shocked.
And a dog. How have you not seen this, Chris? You and your friend Pam and Ripley love watching movies together.
We do. But you know what? Cameron's been, you know, he's been off on vacation. I talked about this a couple of weeks ago. He's just been gone for a little while. Okay. I haven't been able to see him.
I hope you find a new website. Well, no, I mean, you know, me and we've talked about this before. My other friend, Dr. Tori Torrentino.
he always is good with getting a backup for what if i really want to see something he will be back but i have not seen arthur the king i i went through my face of seeing as many of these mark walberg movies as i can for the show you can only do so much dude
so i have to draw the line somewhere and dog movies is definitely a line in the sand i will say two things about arthur the king one i looked it up on uh one of my websites here
nothing on the on the on the, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,
I'm, I'm, um, I did look up, uh, some spoilers on does the dog die.
Um, and it's a big yes, folks.
No, it's a big no, which means that at some point I can see the movie, but, uh, I will say
when I went to go see, uh, Ghostbusters this weekend, one of the commercials at AMC in front
of it was Mark Walberg, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, and it was like,
and it's like, Mark Wahlberg and he's like, hey, here's me and this dog author.
We're in this new movie, author the king together. You should adopt some dogs yourself,
stupid. It's, it's not part of his, uh, uh, Christian smash, is it or, uh, no, he's not
asking anybody to stay prayed up or anything like that. Okay.
made a commercial later on for that Jesus show, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
, uh, uh, but the chosen, uh, the chosen, uh, movie theater TV show, which is great.
Yes, the movie theater TV show.
Boom.
Uh, yes, sir.
Cause I don't know where else it's airing, by the way.
That's a great point.
Where can you find this on television?
I have no idea.
I really, uh, news max, O-A-N or something.
Maybe, maybe.
Maybe. I have no idea.
But does angel distribution have its own TV network?
I, yeah.
That's right around the
One of the surprise is right here.
It's decent little showing here.
4 million for neon here.
The other numbers on this.
It's fine.
Not great.
I will say oddly with this movie,
and I'll talk about it a little later,
but I see something cinema scores.
I don't know if it's C minus or like with horror.
I mean, like, that is generally higher. I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, I mean, exactly. I mean, sometimes they do. We love it. Most of the time, they do love it. Um, so one of the big surprises here, though, in at number three, we were not just sort of dropping down one slot at a time because previously last week at number. At number three, we were not just sort of dropping down one slot at a time because previously last week at number, at number,
number one, we had Kung Fu Panda. Hold on there, you got to be in this top 10 for the rest of the year. He's rocking at number three right now, due to $16.8 million brings it up to 133 million domestic. Doing all right, doing just all right. But yeah, as far as staying in the top 10 for the rest of the calendar year, like you're hoping, Eric, I don't know about that.
guess because of migration
like 50 weeks
already. I see back and off from it
he's explaining the thought process. There's a
there's a difference. Yes, I won't back off
of it. I can't
affect it other than buying movie tickets
for it, which I won't do. I haven't
seen the first three. You should
be going to the movie theater daily to buy tickets
for this thing if you really want this bet
with no one. The bet with no one. The bet with no
on for sure. Whip up your rapid
you're going to go out
you're going to buy a bunch of tickets for this
then just tell people they can show up at the box office
Eric Siska left me
one for Kung Pu Panda. Right, I'm going to do the
Sound of Freedom
type of thing. And then they can be like, oh man,
they're fucking breaking the air conditioner and all the
Kung Fu Panda 4 theaters. I can't believe
it. It's such an important movie.
Everyone needs to go and see it.
Wait, I'm waiting. No, no. I'm sorry.
Could you stop cleaning the theater? I'm waiting
for the QR code that Eric Sisko is paying for.
after Kung Fu Panda 4. I was supposed to click it. I was supposed to get a
it'll happen one day. One day you'll have a
cashier to do this. One day you'll wield the power.
Coming in at number two, very shocked to see it
to hold its own here. Dune Part 2. Nice.
You got to Dune it coming at $17.6 million.
This movie is doing quite all right, fellas.
It's holding on, just like little Timmy on the worm.
It's looking like, oh, actually, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, many fewer weeks, Wanka's $218 million
dollar domestic total. We're at, uh, what are they at here now? This guy is at, uh, 233.
Pretty crazy. Pretty crazy. Still going strong. Um,
definitely held on to a lot of the
what amazes. IMAX
instead of Ghostbusters
getting in there. That did not stop
our Ghostbusters Frozen Empire friends
from coming in at number one.
Oh yeah. Forty-five point two million dollars.
Look at that. You'll be shocked to know
56% of this audience under
35 years old. I'm not surprised. Wait, what percentage?
56% were under, I'm shocked that anyone like
I'm shocked that anyone under 42 is going to see this. Well, because
these are the people like our age bringing their kids. This is now like their
kids, Ghostbusters. I mean, listen, at least according to this
psycho that was going up one side of me and down the other on
Instagram, because I had the fucking audacity to say in the real, as I was
going to see the movie that, honestly, I wasn't really, and I wasn't really, but I wasn't really.
this is.
Like you cynical people think it is, fans of the franchise are bringing their kids.
Okay.
It's not your Ghostbusters anymore.
Like this dude, I get, not your Ghostbusters anymore.
Dude, I had an orgasm pressing the remove follower button with that guy.
Let's get the fuck out of here, folks.
curious what his reaction was. I was a little bit. I bet you. I bet you was a lot of not my ghostbusters. We'll get to it in a minute. But like folks, you got to relax. If someone doesn't like what you like, you have got to relax. You'll see a perfect example of it later in the program where we review Doug Lyman's Roadhouse. But until then, I will say just to get
a shout out to all of our Patreon folks
in the box office poll this weekend.
done. 17% of you
it right in there between
$40 and $45 million.
So right on the high end of the tracking.
Y'all were very, very smart with that one.
Let's see. Oh, and elsewhere around the box office,
check this shit out.
Because we reviewed it last week.
Late Night with the Devil.
Actually came in sixth.
IFC, very, we should mention, we should not, we did not, we reviewed it. I really think they should swap them out. It's not really hard. It's like three graphics.
I will see what happens. We'll see what happens with the VOD released, because it hasn't gone directly to VOD as well. I don't, I think it's going shutter in an April 19th. That's what I would wonder what happens. That,
If, if something was going to happen, so I would like, I would like, I'll tell you do it. I mean, I hope they do it too. I'm not crazy about it, but I will tell you this. Like, I hold a tiny ass, like genre production way less, you know, to the fire than I do that fucking Marvel show where they use a shit ton of AI.
Secret invasion. Secret invasion in there.
their opening thing, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know,
but, um, yeah. No, yeah. I mean, I think someone here, hang out, hang on a second. I got to,
I got to hop in here. Nico Fish saying the AI dramas with selling those tickets, it's absolutely
not. No way someone's going to the theater to buy a ticket to a movie because they heard there's
two shots of AI in it. For people who just look at things, which does still happen. If you're just
I can see having that discussion, boosting it up in social media places. People see the title
more. It does lead to some ticket sales. But I don't think it's the thing that's driving people.
No, it did not drive this to number six at the box office with $2.8 million. That's stellar reviews
and decent word of mouth out of South by going right into it.
I mean, okay, okay, okay, but, but, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, but, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, yeah, okay, let's go take a look, but, someone in the chat is asking what we even mean by AI here, and it is, there are interstitial, like, the movie's not AI, it's, the AI is not choosing shit, it's not, right, yeah, but it's just,
little glimpses of art. We'll be right back on night owls, that is the instance of AI. We're talking about maybe six seconds in the entire film. Yeah. Yeah. And I think this was special because you got word about this before the thing actually came out, whereas stuff like Night Country had this. Again, as you guys pointed out, the Marvel show had this. We've been using, I mean, honestly, in my view, if you're really so against AI, you probably should
have been, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like boycottably. And CGA, uh, uh, and, I mean, like CGA, whatever that,
if that's going to use, but like auto creating things like that. I don't like that. I think that
takes a creative element out of something that should be creative. So that's specifically, like,
de-aging. It's an iffy. The Dune two thing is an iffy thing. I know they did as good as they
could. It's, I don't think that's boycottable. I don't really think this is boycottable.
But like, if you're going to do it. What, what? What, do.
two thing. They created a very, I don't want to get into it. I don't have the word,
on variety. There was a system they created that sounds a lot like how you would teach in AI how to do
something, but they didn't use those words, how they colored all the phremenis. Oh, I see. I see.
And that's just a technique. And that's, those are techniques where I'm like, I don't, I'm not going to get
too crazy about AI on things like that. But if you are going to care about this like these people do,
I think you should be pissed off about this.
that's fair. Most of them are not.
Yeah, I mean,
pick and choose with this. That's the unfortunate thing, right?
It's like, you may not know. I mean, that's,
I feel like, you know, these things are slipped through
more than you realize. But all this to say,
you know, if you want to boycott it, hey, that's totally fine.
Oh, yeah. And if you're curious about checking out the movie,
it's a whole full-throated recommendation for these three pigs
talking at you right now.
now, what will not be curated with any AI whatsoever? Forget artificial intelligence. You're not going to get any real intelligence. When we go on tour this spring.
Ooh. I like that transition there, fellas. Look at that. This is real art, by the way, created by Philippe Sobrero, of course. It does all of our tour art, of course. Very talented, real life artist. We'll say, Gamer. We're playing Atlanta, the city winery in Atlanta, 425. We're
We're talking gamer with Gerard Butler.
Nary a piece of intelligence to be found in that movie,
nothing there. Do come out. It'll be a lot of fun. Tickets are moving on that show.
Sue, you're going to want to snag those now.
That's right. We're a month after today.
Oh, right? Wow.
There you go. Man, time flies when you're having fun, folks.
Then, month after that, we will be making our debut in Space City, Houston, Texas,
at the Houston Improop 2. That's going to be a lot of fun. I'm excited to go back. Although I don't want to get too mixed up with the stories. I feel like I know the first one well enough to separate it out. I might do like a one rewatch then into two. And then into three and then into the Canadian TV movies. Absolutely. And then it's in the 2014 remake. No, you can stop right there. I tried some of the Canadian TV movies.
there. It's like Robo cop
or whatever the shit. I got like
into whatever the first one was.
Robocop firestorm is he, wait, is he saving Huey Long?
He is. Oh. I guess who let the fire in that forest
at 209. Oh my God. Okay.
He was helping William Forsyth. That makes so much more sense now.
Yep.
And then the night after that, we are returning to Austin, Texas.
First time in six years will be back there.
to talk about
to dawn
in a we love movies
in a we love movies.
and that's happening
the cap city comedy club.
very stoked to get back
to Austin as well man.
Very excited in Texas
come through you know
if you're some people are like
oh you know when are you coming back to my city
come to the shows
and we will come back so come
that's right that's how well
Steve's not here so I'll
it's dark night
bam
there we go. I think we had to do it. No, that's true. That keeps the curse at the
those are going on tour. All those shows, meet and greet. Meet and greet's happening.
We'll be shaking hands saying hi, take a picture, signing shit. We love hanging out with all you guys.
That's why we come out on the road, man. It's better than the internet sometimes they say.
So anyway, WHMpodcast.com. Click on that tour button. It'll take you to all.
the ticketing information. It's going to be a busy spring. It's going to be a busy spring. I've got a busy weekend at the box office here, dudes. Let's get into it. First up on screen, Robocom Ghostbusters. Ghostbusters, Frozen Empire, creep. I did not get a chance to check this out. I'm kind of dreading it. I figured maybe in January I would have to see it anyway. You are more than likely going to be
seeing it in January for
we do. Sure, in some capacity.
I will say,
I think this is better than afterlife.
Is it the best one? Best Ghostbusters
movie? No, no.
It's just a little better than the
worst one. It's just a little
bit better than the...
Gil, who is, I forget
if it's Cannon or Keenan.
I think he
did Monster House.
which is a really inventive,
and I think fantastical stuff,
all the fantastical stuff in this movie works
than it has. I would say even in the 2016
Ghostbusters. There's a garbage bag chase
that's really fucking funny.
There's these little notes of things that really work,
but the minute it's the human stuff,
dead, completely gone.
I couldn't care less.
Can I ask you guys?
How was Pat and Oswald and Jumel Nangianni and did they meet up with bazainga to the screen at any time?
I thought Pat, I thought Pat has like one big scene and I thought that scene was well done.
It's mostly to show off a really interesting animated sequence, the history of the main villain,
which doesn't get much time at the end there.
Sure doesn't.
Garaka.
And that was well done, but he just explains it essentially.
nonjani has a bigger role
um, um, um, uh, uh, uh, uh, like,
um, uh, uh, uh, uh,
like a, uh, it's sort of like a
he's, yeah, he's a very important guy for like the big
mystical thing that's happening.
And I, I will say like, I thought he was pretty entertaining too.
He's not in it a ton. He's in it more than Patton, um, who Patton
Pat and I also thought was totally fine and funny in it.
Find off putting his Kumonanjani is now in Star Wars.
Busters. The MCU. It is a little annoying. It is a little
It is a little annoying. There isn't much. And he's just
He's just, he's just, that's, I mean, the curse is he got. Yeah. Curse of current, uh, current
startem is that you say yes to everything. Right. Oh, and he's in that he's in X-Files. Right. He's
in everything you're offered. Just do it. Nothing against him. Nothing against him. I actually
saw him do stand up when he was still starting out of New York and he was very
funny. So, but it's just like, I still really like, I still really like, I think it's a good movie. It's a good movie. You know, I think he had me laughing in this. He absolutely did. I will say, again, the whole, like, the Spangler family drama is just not a part of it that I care about, right? Like, I'm sorry. Like, I don't have kids. I don't give a shit. Like, that part does not speak to me. I think McKenna Grace is still the MVP of this movie.
just like she was, she actually has like, like, like, like, like, like, like, um, um, um, um,
um, um, um, she actually has, like, because again, now what we're talking about is,
like, it's speaking of stuffed, right? And, uh, too many people and whatever, like,
there's too many characters in this movie. And so, like, like, Finn Wolfhardt totally gets the
shaft. His whole thing is like, a couple of scenes with slimer and that's it.
She actually has this kind of sweet, like, queer teen romance thread.
Like, that's like, it's something. And I was like, okay, like, this actually,
actually feels well, well, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know,
like, like, like, like, I don't care. I just, I don't think that stuff works. If it's in some
other movies, sure, but like, they're trying to do like, oh, should I, you know, call him dad while
the containment unit's going to explode. You know what I mean? Like, it's just, that shit didn't
really, uh, too much struggling me. Yeah. And, and you, and you can't pay anything off.
even that like you're doing this to theoretically you're doing all these things to enrich the main plot and the main plot garaka comes like the last 25 minutes maybe and is it barely there like there's one big face off barely happens and then it's over and then like we're talking about the spanglers again and whether we're a family or not and is carrying coon and Paul Rudd going to make it and I don't care I really don't care I super don't
And like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
I'm like, like, yeah, like, yeah, and like, yeah, who still hates the ghost busters.
And, like, I thought that was kind of cool.
And I was like, okay, explore that.
Like, here's this dude that despised them in that first movie, had them put away and, you know,
rest in whatever.
Now he's the mayor.
Like, what does that look like?
And then also, like, all the stuff that they set up with Winston and everything that he's built and, like,
his philanthropy, like, he's got a really cool thing.
going on, that there's just not enough time
or flesh it. I mean, they explain it. I mean,
you don't, you don't really see it in practice that much.
James Acaster, who I think is a really funny stand-up,
is sort of like the assistant to Winston in this laboratory.
And like, he's pretty cool, but you don't really get to know
too much about the character, you know?
So they sideline all of that to focus on,
am I being good mommy daddy?
well that's part of it
as I said I as I as I
as I as I as I'm a familiar
problem it is a movie
as a season of TV
there are very clear
each what each episode would have
taken on one would have been
the the ghost relationship that happens
one would have been
Paul Rudd and Carrie Coon
one would have been Finn Wolfheart and Slimer
all this stuff and throughout it
you would get stuff about the Garaca thing
Camel Non Johnny's whole role in it
these things would have all got in a TV series, like, like, like, but in a movie, like, like, like, like they did nothing to blend it in.
They did nothing to be like, here's a little note of this.
Here's a tiny sprinkle of it.
They have to have huge fucking scenes in the middle of another movie you're making that kind of tells you like, well, we care about this person and we do care about that person too.
And we do care about that person.
Also, that person is worthy.
That one's worthy as well.
And oh, this one over there.
Also, we promise, we promise. We promise. We care. You know, dude, but we don't care about it. The funny thing is, with everybody that's getting stuffed back in these movies, I guess that firehouse is only big enough for one ghost, because Muncher, nowhere to be found in this movie. What? Muncher, what? Total muncher erasure, dude.
You couldn't have even a fun time with Slymer and Muncher. Yeah, Eric, is you right to cry. If you're crying, you're right to.
uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, I, I, I, I do feel like they should
have gotten muncher. If you're gonna bring back all this other shit, you should bring back muncher.
Eric, you, you know, I, you look very emotional.
Good. How do they get rid of it? It's the one redeeming thing about afterlife was the big old
honk and muncher. Yeah, I agree. You have, you have a boatload of slimer, but I, you know, I was
thrown for a loop too, because at the start of, you know, before the movie started, you have like,
marie menunos uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, but I was in new new new provia's
and I could not think of Muncher's name, but it was like, what's the name of this blue ghost
and afterlife? And I was like, oh, yeah, that thing. And then it said Muncher. And I was like,
oh, gonna be dealing with Muncher in this movie. Oh, did Muncher make the move to the big
apple too? Apparently not. Where did he go? Where did he go? Did he cross over?
Was his business finished? I think they must have just, they busted it.
him in the other movie, that's it. I will say, Chris, he humped, he had to do. He's what he was
maybe that's all he had to do. Maybe that was what he was staying on this earth to do, was to hump and eat one more fire hydrant, and that's it. I don't know.
Yeah, so here's something I never thought I would say, possibly ever again with a new movie.
I thought Dan Aykroyd was pretty good in I think as far as like, I think, like, like, you know, you know, acroid has the largest role by far.
He's really worked into the story more than Ray or more than much more.
Peter and Winston and Janine.
Like he's involved in the movie.
And like, you can tell he was really thrilled.
by this. He was really happy to be involved with it. He actually has a great scene.
Akroyd and Ernie Hudson have a stairwell where it's like kind of talking about like maybe you shouldn't be doing Ghostbuster shit because you're an old man anymore kind of stuff. And like I don't know. I actually thought all that worked really well. I thought the two of them were done nicely together. Annie Potts is funny in it. But again, not a ton. I think she's probably in it less than she is in the in the afterlife. And Murray
he just kind of comes in
he's not a tonne in the trailer. He's given to
But again, Chris,
Chris, you're point about like television episodes
it would have been like episode four
This is where we take it to Vankman
And this is Vankman's episode and whatever
And I mean, I don't know
If Sony wanted to make
A Ghostbusters TV show like this
It would have worked better
It would play better, you know, as it is
I do think this is better
um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,
I'm not, um, so, you know, there, there was that. It, you know, it's, again, like,
I didn't hate it. It's just, it's a movie that's just not for me. And it's a little
crowded. Um, there's more comedy, I guess. There's less, uh, they're not like folding an
American flag over a coffin and weeping during the entire thing. Nothing, nothing like that. It's not
last flag flying. It's much like, to be honest, to be
like what happened with Dune, although both Dune's are
good. The first Dune got all this setup done
so that the second one could just go
and you didn't have to worry about any of that. This one can also
similarly not worry so much about who the fuck
is Paul Rudd, where did he come from, why did he get here, all this shit.
It just can run with that stuff. And therefore, it doesn't feel
as hampered by that, but it does feel hampered by so many
narratives that they got, all these plots that they got. I can't hold on to it. Yeah. It's too much movie. The crazy thing is the runtime of that movie is under two hours long. So like, was there so much movie that like trying to make it work just made it three hours long and you couldn't find like a two 15? I was very surprised that it's like an hour in 46 minutes or something like that for as much story as they're trying. I'm shocked. I just assumed it.
would have been two hours in 45 minutes. No, which was very strange. It actually allowed for me to do a double
Friday morning. Steve was going to be my immaculate buddy, but yes, he is out sick. So I will just quickly
weigh in on Michael Mowen's new one that Neon is putting out. This was a movie that I guess
Sydney Sweeney agreed to ages ago and now, you know, she's Sidney Sweeney, so they actually
got to make it, premiered it South by. You know, I got to say,
say I was
was a jerk on letterbox and said, you know, you know, um, um, um, um,
like, uh, you know what I mean? Like, uh, it's a story you feel you've seen
before. Like, if you're watching it, you feel like you've seen it before.
It's kind of because you have, uh, there's not a ton of new ground here. Um,
and as far as like the religious horror angle like that, I mean, for me, right?
and my fellow Catholic bud, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, um, um, um, it's sort of the easier ones to get under our skin, right?
Just due to the nature of how we grew up. Um, and this movie, like, it kind of just feels like, um, it's sort of like a Wikipedia kind of level of understanding of Catholicism and, and rights and things like that.
So it sort of felt like, whereas, you know, something like St.
Maude, or, you know, right, right, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like Catholicism is ingrained in the DNA of those
movies. This Catholicism kind of feels like a window dressing.
Right. So, yeah, it's like a new, it's like a modern trad cast thing that's like, kind of bullshit.
Uh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. What's the supernatural element to this? What, what is scary about this,
besides nuns who have sticks and beat children? Yeah, no rulers in this movie.
I was waiting for the blues brothers to get knocked down a flight of stairs.
No, without any spoilers, Sweeney plays an American from Michigan
who moves to Italy to take her vows to become a full-on nun and live there.
I mean, it's actually kind of an inch.
I was seeing someone say something about like, oh, with these horror movies,
like the main character still always has to be an American.
That's right.
But what I will say about that, it's kind of interesting because it speaks to like
the declining number of, like, like, like, like, like, and so it's like, for this, for this particular character, it kind of makes sense. She is someone who doesn't really have a family, and she moves to Italy to be a part of this convent. And the convent is like, sort of like a retirement home for nuns that are kind of on their way out, you know, so she will be helping, you know, older sisters ascend into bed, bed, bed, bed, total. I mean, there's a whole, like, this is how you wipe her ass, like, clean,
moment in the movie.
So, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, like,
like, like, like, so, so, so after she gets there, like, spooky stuff starts happening.
Like, like, they, nasty poo she has to clean.
Yeah.
It's, it looks like Muncher.
It's Muncher, dude.
That's, like, that's where Muncher, Muncher couldn't film Frozen Empire, because he was
busy filming Immaculate.
He was busy ripping off that scene in Dogma.
Oh, right.
The shit monster.
I mean, and as you can guess by the title and a lot of the marketing, like, she is
potentially immaculately
is what's what's what's
so that's kind of the movie
and it's 84 minutes
but my big problem with it
again it's not a movie that I hated at all
I think the last 15 minutes
are quite something
but the journey to there
it's fine to have not a lot happen
if you have like the atmosphere to back it up
and I don't quite think
the movie hits it's quite dull. The score, I did not think, they're trying to do like a gau type thing, because there's a gentle bit of Argento influence kind of thrown in, but like not a ton. So the music really was taking me out of it. And, you know, I am, I've known to be critical of Sydney Sweeney on this show. I will say the last 15 minutes of this movie, when she's actually allowed to do something, she really fucking opens it up.
pedal to the metal, pretty wild stuff.
um, like, like, like, like, like, like,
of Texas chainsaw. Um, um, um, but the movie itself, kind of just a snooze
overall. I would say, honestly, like, go see St. Maude instead. Uh, yeah,
you know, go see it or rented or whatever. Um, so yeah, that's, that's that. Uh, now, here
we go. You didn't have to go anywhere to see this next movie this weekend. Roadhouse,
the Doug Lyman
remake that just dropped
last Thursday. Let's get into it
I think we have some differing opinions
a little bit. Hand it off to
Eric Siska, you saw this one. Yes, I
you know, I like Jake, I like
the location, I kind of like
a lot of what's going on here
but the CGI
and the action scenes
got a district. At first I was like, oh well
there was that one little, I'm sure it'll
pick up, it'll be fine. And
then it's like a truck backing up. And then Connor McGregor, I've ever seen. I don't know his work very much. I know he punches people for a living. I thought he'd at least have some kind of swagger with that. But it was obnoxious to me. But I could see the case for enjoying this movie. I again, I don't really have that big of a problem with Lyman. I don't have a problem with Jake. And I thought the Florida
the location was kind of fun. I think the Florida, I think the Florida, I think it looks great for when you get to see it. I mean, I have to agree with you. Conor McGregor, I feel like he watched, like, snatch and lockstock to smoke and barrels. And he's like, that's the movie. I don't care what the movie actually is. I'm going to be doing what those people were doing. And that's the only way he does. And he does that terribly, to be clear. But that is definitely the mode he was trying to go for. Like big smart, like you see his ass.
at least twice in a stinger, once in a stinger, which I definitely, I don't understand that stinger, I'm just me, I mean, like, he might be back for the next one, is what they're saying, if we do a next one.
Or if you were going to do a DTV like fucking series with just him, that would make sense coming from this since clearly they are not going to be revisiting the roadhouse world.
after this. I doubt Jake Gyllenhawnhall is going to deal with Amazon ever again after what they did to this. And to be, I don't like the movie. I think the movie is pretty poor. I think Jake Gyllenhaal and Billy Magnuson are the reasons to see it. And if you really like both of them, I think they both do good work and an otherwise pretty disposable movie. It doesn't feel like Roadhouse. It just feels like they were like, hey, want to make an action movie where you fight a lot? Yeah, let's make a South Paw 2. Let's
make Southpaw too, but you're down
but you're down in the Florida keys instead of
that's essentially what we're doing here
if that's your thing, whatever
but like to me, if you're going to do a movie
called Roadhouse, you should try to
echo something about like
Patrick Swayze's character that is
very spiritual and
like enlightened and he's trying to
he has his own code
and they take a lot of time
to tell you that he has that code and believes
in it. And like this is just like,
well, I'm kind of just a
better fighter than everybody.
you. That's essentially
that's essentially the people
like the people who are like
the owner of the bar
the two
the two bodyguard
not the bodyguard like bouncers.
The other bouncers.
So yeah I just kind of felt
it was just too normal. It just kind of just didn't
do anything. The
the owner of the
bar of
course
Jessica Williams
playing
and Frankie.
Yeah, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um, um,
probably she was a teacher in book smart. She's in, um, shrinking. Uh, yeah, you know,
so I'll say this. I agree with everything you guys said, both of you guys. I agree with
everything you said. And yet. Mm-hmm. It's okay. I like a movie. It's okay. It's, it's fun
enough movie. I understand why you would like it. Because it's, it's so fucking stupid.
Like at every turn, the stupidity, if it was like some sort of community car wash, you were like, you know, then the little thermometer is going to be filled up with red marker all the way.
Like the stupidity level with every fight, the red marker is filling in more for the community car wash.
And like by the denou ma of this motion picture, such as it is, that thing is exploding with red marker out of the top.
it's so fucking dumb. It goes around the son of stupidity. I'm sitting around to me, oh, I can take all this. I know Connor McGregor is fucking terrible. I don't know what that performance is. Some of this digital fight stuff, I don't know what's going on. Why we couldn't back out a truck IRL? I don't understand it. I really don't. Every bad decision from like production wise to like whatever they had to do.
do to the strikes to the decision to the theaters, all of the stupid shit just created this perfect storm for me to kind of have a good time with this movie. I don't know. I feel like maybe folks, and then if this is the case, you're right to have the response that don't call it this. But like, I feel like the reaction to this movie would naturally be different if it wasn't called Roadhouse. If he was not Dalton, if he was just some other dude. So yeah, it is impossible to unmarried.
you know, you know, unless you obviously, unless you
right in the movie, you, you know, you know, you know,
I would say this movie's actually probably closer to Roadhouse too
with Jake Busy than it is Roadhouse with Patrick Swayze.
Who's the dude in that Jonathan Sheck, I think, is the guy in Roadhouse too?
I sound right. I did not know about Roadhouse too.
Oh, dude, Jake Bucci in a hot tub with some babes.
It's a pretty dumb. It is, it's DTV.
uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, I don't, uh,
I don't know if it's the same town. I don't remember a swamp being there. So I'm sort of
the main character, Shane Tanner. And guess what, Will Patton's in this movie as well.
Oh, he was a time there where he was, he was also saying yes to everything for a while. Oh, he could
maybe be like the Ben Gazara stand in. Um, yeah, that makes me. I did, I mean, I did also really like
Billy Magnus in the movie. That dude, that dude just dude, that dude, that dude. That dude, that dude. That's really good. I love him in Game Night's really great.
The TV works been great. I'm trying to remember exactly what it was. I'm going to look it up, because I do remember that's where I first
I'll say this. I'll say this. I'll say you're not doing computer stuff. I thought, we got things blowing up in this movie much more than in Roadhouse, Roadhouse, which was kind of cool. I was surprised the ways in which they took it farther than just kind of like a punching and kicking movie, although there is plenty of punching and kicking to go around. Don't worry about it. But yeah, you know, I don't know. It was like a Thursday after.
afternoon. I watched it all. I was delightfully entertained. I will say, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh,
was the, uh, uh, is the, uh, actresses name playing that bartender. She just sort of,
she felt like a legit, like, seen it all in the shit kind of bartender character, uh, which I
thought was nice. What I don't think worked for me was, uh, good old Joachim Delameda, uh, as the
crooked sheriff. Like, yeah. I just don't know with that guy. Because,
they're sort of hyping it up like that was going to be somebody, you know, like, like, like, like, like, like, like, I got kind of hyping like, I got confused for a second because they keep hyping up like, oh, Billy Magnuson's dad who's in prison, blah, blah, blah. And I thought like, that dude's getting out. And then like, that sort of shifted. And all of a sudden, like the dad in prison didn't matter anymore. But I was like, no, no, no, that's like, he's the boss. Like, that dude should come out and have to like take care of his idiot son. You're waiting for that. That's what I thought the fucking, the, the, the, the, the, the, the, the.
bonus scene was going to get it was going to get Edward Norton Edward Norton Edward
thing where like here we go we're going to have a second one but we're definitely not
having a second one to be clear right right right like that that would at least have been something
again we talk about this on this this this month's once on a lifetime get Eric Roberts in that
fucking oh yeah right there and just have to be the guy who you call that's fine he has a face for
it totally right dude I'm gonna buy the road house yeah totally
Oh, Sean Andrews, Andrews, Andrews out here in the chat, Andrews, Andrews, ass, uh, uh, friendly henchman, uh, was his favorite part of the movie.
I think that guy's very fucking funny. Uh, and he was pretty funny in this.
I think he's from Broad City. He's, yeah, he's funny. Yeah, I like him. Uh, Billy Macdon, by the way,
well, I remember first seeing him from is, um, he's got like a small arc in, uh, Bordwock Empire towards the end. Uh, I think it's like two or three episodes.
I love that show.
He also played Cato Cato Claims
He did. He was in the good wife
He had an episode or two
In the Good Wife as well.
You know what I will say though?
Like I know it's supposed to be like for a joke or whatever
Jake should have fought Post Malone.
Like that shouldn't have been allowed to go down like that.
A fucking forfeited a fight club?
I don't think so.
They should fight in real life too.
Oh, please.
I mean, anybody wants to
I'm surprised nobody
I'm surprised nobody went out at the Super Bowl
and decked him one right at the beginning
that would have been nice
why we're punching people of the Super Bowl
what was he doing there?
Wasn't he doing the he did like
he's become more of like so many
pop artists he's like gone country kind of
and I'm not sure if this was the game
before the Super Bowl or the Super Bowl
it was in that time he came out
because he's a huge artist so I assume it has to be
the Super Bowl he came out and it did like
a country
American the beautiful
rendition. I'm like I'm like I'm like I'm like I'm like I'm like I'm like white
like I know it's fine like I don't like those songs but that's who you are you're stupid and you
do this shit and like don't do this fucking serious like I'm America like get me a guitar out here
like come on stay stupid stay stupid stay stupid stay stupid stay stupid very important
Very important stuff. Yeah. Yeah, I just find it hard to believe that an underground fight
I don't think. That's how that should have worked. To be clear, he got the purse at least.
Like, I mean, that's what happens if you are going forfeit. Yeah, but you know, you should still,
even if they don't want to fight anymore, you should beat them to death to get that purse.
Um, it was, oh, you know, and I will say, yeah, you can make the argument fine that Amazon made the right
called, but I just know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you
you know, but the experience would have been fun, like, sure, watching a dumb as dick movie like this and a big
auditorium, you know, and I have to say, I was pretty pissed off to notice, uh, couldn't help
see them plugging, uh, Amazon was, oh, the premiere of Roadhouse that they had in a theater.
on a big screen. Isn't that fucking interesting? Isn't that fucking screen? Why did you just send everyone, and they could watch it on their fucking ass at home? Like you made the rest of us do.
Yeah. I mean, you know, big screen for thee, not for we, motherfucker. I get it. Okay. Even though I had problems with the movie, I would have had a better time at a movie theater. And I would have definitely gone to see it on the big screen. But hey, here we are.
What are you going to do? But that's it, folks. Three big movies reviewed this week here on On Screen Live. Now, of course,
We have some reminders and some things we don't want you to miss here.
as brand new night vision designed by Philippe Brow.
This is a bit hot off the presses from our Rollerball 2002 episode.
Really in love with that night vision design.
Really in love with that night vision bit, I have to say.
Yes, just go to pat ourselves on the back a little bit.
That's a pretty good bit.
Go to WHM Podcast.com.
and click on merch.
to our T.
public store where you can get night vision or any other type of
like the show graphics.
If you follow us on social media,
you might know about this.
So check it out if you don't,
you know.
That's right.
And we had a big week,
big back-to-back weeks of programming.
So just to make sure everyone's caught up to speed as what was going on last
week, of course.
We had the Gleap Glouclery drop,
all about Savaggio Press.
Mm-hmm.
And his other brother.
Mr.
Hell's a little bit.
The most stronger brother.
I still have yet to remember
my eyes peeled at the store
for Sovesa Crystal in my neighborhood.
I know I said I was going to do it on that episode.
I fucking forgot.
I was literally at the grocery store this morning.
I got to make a note to myself.
Never forget.
That's right.
Also last week, another
patron curated episode.
Animation Damnation.
we were talking about the cartoon Brave star, which we swore up and down. We did not. That was the first time for everything.
And speaking of first time, might have been your first time last Friday. We dropped the first official episode of Too Old for the shit this season where we are recapping the entire first season of X-Men 97.
So the first episode dropped last Friday where we covered the first two episodes of that show.
got to say, pretty excited for that shit so far. It's good. It's good. I'm so far as well. That's right. Uh, uh, uh, if you're curious here, that graphic on the lower right hand side there, that's a graphic that Philippe made with the release schedule. You can find that Pindar Instagram. We're at WHM podcast. And also the release dates for all of those episodes are on our website. Uh, go to the too old for the shit page. Because it's not weekly, folks. We're doing specific.
updates for these episodes, so you don't want to be confused there. Now,
the show rose on. Last week, request month, got a couple things
to crack open. Like, Eric, what are we talking about
next, tomorrow, literally? Tomorrow and we hate movies.
Tomorrow on We Hate Movies, yeah, it is Young
Einstein. Oh, my goodness. Look at that.
Look at this. This is the Yahoo! Serious movie that is not
so serious. Eric's favorite movie. I defend
Eric is the defender. Eric, it's a fun. Like roadhouse. Like the
Yeah. Lots of good animals. Yeah, a lot of good animals. Uh, yeah, that's on the free feed, but you can catch that ish. Ad free on Patreon tomorrow at the $8 level and up. Uh, also happening on the Patreon.
One last listener requested thing to drop on Thursday, our Star Trek recap show, The Nexus. We're talking about two patron curated episodes here.
We got The Thaw, which is a season 2 episode of Star Trek, featuring, we got Michael McKeon there as a creepy clown.
And then those old scientists, the season two episode of Star Trek's Strange New Worlds, where Jack Quaid and Tony Newsom bring their lower decks animated characters to life.
Very fun episode there.
That drops Thursday, $8 level and up.
And now, the bummer, of course, we wanted Steve to be here to help usher in the big announcement for what we're doing in April.
we got another theme month.
Oh, oh,
today was the debut.
we got, we got,
we got you all last week. This covered up
of course, this is art
also by Philippe.
Um, and we're going to announce it now.
So this right here, take a look at the April
programming.
Three, two, one.
Oh, oh, you know what.
Yes.
Daddy's all month.
And here is back.
Hello, Ed.
Yeah.
you again, by the way, by the way, by the boys, by the boys, by the boys, by the boys, by the boys, by the boys. I got to say, by the way, people, you need to check out the video of these shows on YouTube because what Andrew just did there was a masterclass. Hey, you know, an ounce of professionalism here. All right. Here we go.
Three, one around. Two, yeah, no fucking around now. Here we go. Three, two, one, reveal. Oh, yeah. Look at that. There it is. The dumbest. The dumbest theme month we could think of.
Sheen prill. All Charlie Sheen movies. All right. A lot of them. A lot of people said, so we're doing it. No apes this year. No. Sheens instead. We're doing sheens. This was really, we had been thinking for a long time. How do we do men at work on the program? And rather than just to say, let's do an episode. I'm at work. We're like, no, fuck that.
whole month, and we're going to deal with a whole bunch of different Charlie Sheen vehicles, the monster that he was he was. He was. He was. So Chris let one out of the bag, but we'll keep it at that because you will learn every piece of programming for next month if you subscribe to our Patreon and get that Big Daddy dispatch available at all levels. We'll be telling you every single movie. But we will say, just due to the nature of what we wanted to do for episodes, like, you know, we're back.
at the driver's seat here. Some of these are movies. Some of these are Charlie Sheen movies.
So to varying degrees. We'll see. Yes. Once again, Philippe's Rose, amazing art. Charlie Sheen dressed as Napoleon riding a tiger, which it's just like saying it makes me feel like I just did a fucking line.
And everyone who is not into this idea, don't worry, the Patreon will still have a lot of content, non-related.
to Charlie Sheen, including the return, but yeah, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, you know, yeah, but yeah, you know, it's just a dumbass thing to do to talk about some Charlie Sheen movies that we realized, like, long time coming for a lot of these. So April is going to be pretty ridiculous. We've already started recording stuff for it. It's going to be Bonk Town, guys, and I'm very excited. But that's going to do it for this week's onscreen live. Again, we hope you have a great week filled with tons of WHMU programming.
But until next time, Andrew Jupin, Eric Siska, adios, folks, bye-bye.
