Also speaking of Overboard I gave the "remake" a watch 1.) It's more of a sequel because they reference the first movie like it happened, and 2.) Is it bad I kinda enjoy Anna over Kurt, maybe it's because I grew up with a on again off again single mom, or it's because Kurt was a terrible father in that movie

2024-12-04 19:36:03 +0000 UTCInteresting to hear it's been getting a podcast reappraisal! I think it really has the makings of a true cult classic

2024-12-04 07:03:07 +0000 UTCI actually got confused because I watched that, and now when seeing they did Bulworth here, I got them confused and thought I already heard it

2024-12-03 19:16:50 +0000 UTCLoved the episode on something I haven't thought about it forever haha. Barely related, but it reminded me of a couple of great movies I've been thinking about lately: Save the Tiger with Jack Lemmon and The Swimmer with Burt Lancaster. Just middle-aged stars at the end of their leading man days doing really thought-provoking, surreal indictments on the bullshittery of society while really doing a 180 and engaging in the culture of the youth. I just love the idea of one character moving from situation to situation like some sort of epic, but just being like "what the fuck is happening?"

2024-12-03 07:54:49 +0000 UTCOverboard is one of the few movies we had on VHS when I was young so I've seen it 538 times. Love it though. Kurt is so great he can even make his common-law wife Goldie Hawn loveable.
Thomas Bishop
2024-12-03 07:53:54 +0000 UTCYou definitely should check out The Best of Times for the Kurt show - him and Robin Williams together in a terrific small town football drama. It’s so good!

2024-12-03 07:53:15 +0000 UTCHow about Sky High for Kurt Russell?
Tom Goodwin
2024-12-03 06:25:12 +0000 UTCOverboard might be good for Christmas with Kurt you guys get to talk about that Synth Bluegrass theme it has

2024-12-03 02:49:55 +0000 UTCWho's going to remember Black Panther even 5 years from now? Even hamfisted late 90s shit like this is gold I'm comparison
Steven Trotter
2024-12-03 01:41:13 +0000 UTCStrange how movies like this go totally forgotten while total fantasy like Black Panther is universally celebrated.

2024-12-03 01:37:56 +0000 UTCOr maybe even the two movies in which the guy actually played Santa Claus.

2024-12-03 01:36:47 +0000 UTCRyan, your observation about people having "memed" jokes into reality re: you and your friends and your ironic "bros" is actually a partial explanation of the hipster movement we're still dealing with today. You quite literally contributed to what my favorite Simpsons moment summed up perfectly. https://youtu.be/udJw-CzX7sA?si=qzbqP68fFtVwW6Mz

2024-12-03 01:35:40 +0000 UTCWag The Dog is one of those movies that I think actually hurt society in the long run just because now when ANYTHING happens people claim it's a "Wag the Dog" event

2024-12-03 00:47:18 +0000 UTCPodcast like it's the 1990s did an episode on Bulworth for Election Day this year, too.

2024-12-02 22:21:55 +0000 UTCYou know another film based Youtube channel called This Aged Great also released a (much much shorter) video on Bullworth today. What's up with that trippy coincidence
Steven Trotter
2024-12-02 21:48:42 +0000 UTCExcited for Christmas with Kirk! Next year you guys should do 29th street, just watch it over the weekend and really enjoyed it.
