Upcoming Half in the Bag

Happy Friday, everyone! With the recent release of Willy's Wonderland starring Nicholas Cage, we decided to start working on a new Half in the Bag focusing on the weird little subgenre of shameless Five Nights at Freddy's cash-in movies. Five Nights at Freddy's itself is a nod to Showbizz Pizza which we obviously have a strange personal connection to thanks to Dick the Birthday Boy. It's all connected! 

These are the kinds of places our minds go when there are no big movies coming out.

You could do a half in the bag of bat sh!t Nick Cage flicks if the mood ever strikes you. Wickerman, Mandy, and Showbiz Pizza 's Revenge (terrifying as a kid). Looking forward to whatever you guys come up with next. ๐Ÿป

Angie Stiers

Hey, Mike have you ever watched the TV show Celebrity Ghost Stories? Giancarlo Esposito had an experience. Margaret Cho had a terrible one.

Paul Spence

What did you think of Saint Bernard?

Jeremy Raymond

Jay mentioned on Twitter the he liked Saint Maud so that could be in the cards.

Dan Port

Ugh, yeah, too true!

Dan Port

I'm Fri-gay for Fri-Jay!

Its crazy that movies like Willies exist. Movie probably spent more then half of the budget on Nick Cage. Like you can pause the trailer on any 5 seconds and it looks cheap.

AudioGman

I also vouch for Saint Maud, itโ€™s superb

Kyle McLachlan

Banana Splits I assume....

Kyle McLachlan

This sounds like a great idea for an ep. Donโ€™t forget that there are some old PreRec streams of Five Nights if you need some b roll.

Josh Evans

Ooh. Should be a good one!

Steven

Yawn. What the people want is another superhero origin story, not insightful comments about movies we'd otherwise not consider watching as Marvel smothers us with "cinema".

Bort Ward

What do you guys think about Saint Maud?

geekay

Honestly, Half in the Bag has never been better.

Casey Smith

Do Saint Maud as well!

Mahaloth

I love when it gets weird

Jason Sealy

This is a movie that would be probably destroyed at the end of a BOTW episode.

Lelio Mulas

You totally sold me with that last line

Conor

So banana splits, Willy and hmmmm what else?

Nicolas Peterson

The FnaF "bite of 87" victim took damage to his frontal lobe, which causes loss of fine motor function and undermines speaking ability, leading to things like falling over a lot and jumbling words...

Rhea

A Judas/Saint Maud HitB would be rad.

Rhea

Review Barb and Star, I'm curious to know what you think.

ItsPatreonYo

"Five Nights at Freddy's" is a horror video game, where you are a guard being haunted by loud and obnoxious murdering animal robots at night. They scream really loud. That's "scary".

AshesBoomstick

Judas and the Black Messiah HITB?

Donald Fasce

So Mike is finally going to play Five Nights At Freddy's? Did I understand this post correctly?

Neil Peart, Lord of Drums

Sounds great, are you appealing the Diamond and Fox takedown? Iโ€™d love to see how much money you made them in rentals. *sigh*

Jeff Kleist

That's something I didn't expect to read today. Thanks for the laugh ๐Ÿ˜‚

Steven

I think I just got fanny flutters.

rachel

We're already mentally preparing ourselves

Red Letter Media

"These are the kinds of places our minds go when there are no big movies coming out." Nicolas Cage beating satanic robots to death with a broom stick isn't "big" enough for you...? :/

Manuel Johnen

I just watched a review of Willy's Wonderland on Scaredy Cats. I'm looking forward to your take!

Comrade Cat Lady

Don't worry, it's only 27 days until the Snyder Cut drops!

Lance Hunter

I just bought China Town and Die Hard on blue ray... crazy times!!!

Erling Hansen

"It's all connected!" And that famous Dick the Birthday Boy photo was shown to Julia Roberts on the Ellen Show! It's the Showbiz Pizza Bear conspiracy!

Marvin Falz

Anyone else's mind immediately jump to "IT Crowd" when they saw the movie title? Just me? Okay. Moving along now. Looking forward to this headfirst plummet down the rabbit hole.

Lisa

Justin Decloux recommend Willys Wonderland on his YouTube channel, I left a comment saying I won't trust him again, such a visually ugly movie

CosmicDebris

I hope it's not too cold around your part, what with the extreme US weather!

Peter Varga

Obligatory "It's all about family" comment... Can't wait! The Special Effects are Fantastic!! I have nothing original to add.......

JTruts

As a non-American, what is "shameless Five Nights at Freddy's cash-in movies"?

Carl Emmoth

Iโ€™m here for it

Jessica

It is happening again...

Jeanne Watson

Guys....we've been having an extensive conversation here in MA at our house....Why no RE:View of "Firefox"? C'mon...."Firefox", guys..."Firefox"...it's 3 movies in one...Clint Eastwood runs and exercises like a MAN at the beginning (better than the McNamara twins...just sayin'....). Just sayin'...I'm sittin' here, on February Break from work, rewatching all sorts of episodes of everything...."Firefox"...

mgarrow1971

Dig it.

Daniel E. Passaro

I miss Pre Rec โ˜น๏ธ

Poo In An Alleyway

Canโ€™t fucking wait!

hamish smith

I was wondering if this movie was on your radar....it's one of the more "Nic Cage" movies I've seen in a while and utterly entertaining to boot. Doom guy meets five nights at freddy's.

Robert Dytmire

Nothing like good news on this Fri-yay!

Whitney Joy

If that is the case, could we, maybe, keep theaters closed forever and ever, because this is the content I need in my life.

Bill Lehecka

Is Half in the Bag replacing PreRec?
