Podcasting Day: The Worst Movie You Love, with David Bell 🌭
Added 2021-03-01 13:01:01 +0000 UTCYou have used your eyes to ingest far more than the FDA mandated Maximum Ocular Hot Dog Intake (2 franks/day). Let’s give them a break and switch to cramming tubed meats straight into your earholes. It’s Podcasting Day! Today the illustrious David Bell arrived on a palanquin carried by six fit eunuchs cut solely by natural causes (the rarest and most prized of all) to grace us with his royal presence.
You might know him from Gamefully Unemployed, the excellent podcast empire he co-dominates with the cruel but beautiful Tom Reimann. Whether it’s Story Mode or Hype Cast, We Just Watched… or Fox Mulder is a Maniac, he casts pods so frequently you honestly have no excuse not to have heard and loved one by now. I would not admit to that in public if I were you, I’d just correct it right away.
We had a simple but powerful prompt for David: What’s the worst movie that you unironically love?
He brought Miami Connection, 1987 Florida’s love letter to electric guitars, ninjas, and friendship.
Brockway brought Equilibrium, the himbo’s treatise on like… how art is pretty good and stuff.
Seanbaby brought Traxx, an absolute lunatic’s smeared suicide note of a film.
Words cannot do it justice, which is too bad since that’s all we used on this podcast.
Listen to it with both ears so it feels like we have you surrounded! Then please subscribe at your preferred service, don’t forget to leave us a review, and tell a friend or respected enemy about us. We really need your help to grow this podcast, and those are by far the best things you can do for us, who have given you so much and only ever asked for more in return.

Ultraviolet is Equilibrium's spiritual sequel and it's even worse and even better and I love it.

2021-03-03 13:55:52 +0000 UTCListening right now: I'm Mexican I can confirm that's the correct way of saying "Excuse me, there's too many devils in this elevator." Grammatically at least, because in reality Mexican elevators only have 1 (one) elevator each.

2021-03-02 15:15:17 +0000 UTCI'm the sort of jackass who likes Lockout, Southland Tales, and Hudson goddamn Hawk. As bad as they all are, the filmmakers really went for something. They missed, but goddamn did they swing.

2021-03-01 19:37:12 +0000 UTCAw fuck man, Equilibrium. I absolutely loved this movie in college, and all my friends all bought way too much into the Gunkata thing. The timing of this episode is pretty great/terrible for me, personally as I recently showed my entire ass by reccomending it to my father in law after we watched John Wick. But oh hey, all the good scenes are on Youtube so let me just pull that up! NB: Don't juxtapose Equilibrium with John Wick and expect to walk away with your ego intact.

2021-03-01 16:17:17 +0000 UTCSomething can be stylish and a lot of fun, you can absolutely love it, and it can still be terrible at its core. See every rock star.

2021-03-01 15:35:23 +0000 UTCAlso, Equilibrium is not a bad movie. It's a very stylized movie, but pulls it off very well and is a lot of fun.

2021-03-01 14:37:36 +0000 UTCI don't think I could answer this question because if I love it, I can't think of it as "the worst". So, I googled bad movies that people love and found two TWO that I never thought of as bad. Howard the Duck, and Super Mario Brothers. They also had Road House on there, so the legitimacy of this list is suspect, but I'm going to justify my love of HtD in 3 words. Anthropomorphic. Duck. Tits. This movie is rad as hell. Show me one other film that can pay good money to show ADT without it being some weird anime panty flash bullshit and I'll kick myself in the dick.

2021-03-01 14:34:26 +0000 UTCEx-cuuuuuuse me, but how DARE you imply Equilibrium is anything but a masterpiece? "Worst movie" my ass. Now Traxx... THAT is absolute trash, and I fucking love it because of it. I'd say it's the same with Miami Connection, but I haven't seen that in a while, so I can't trust my memory. Is it bad and I love it or is it good and I love it? Who knows!?

2021-03-01 14:19:23 +0000 UTCI originally saw Miami Connection through the magic of Rifftrax and can't fucking wait to hear someone else discuss its madness. The Dogg Zzone does not disappoint!
