Half in the Bag: Quarantine Catch-up (part 4 of 2)

Comments

can we get a "mike and jay (or maybe rich evans) talk about" for Doom Patrol?

Cade Bryan

Really curious about your thoughts on Doom Patrol. I hope you get to do a video on it. I enjoyed bits of it and watched the whole thing only since I read the comics back in the day. It had me for a couple episodes around the middle.

Leo Puppytime

When they started talking about Russell Crowe that was exactly what came to my mind.

that had me freaked, is it a reference to something?

Ken_Broth

It's probably just the standard french pronunciation... Ville like ville ("town") and neuve like neuf ("nine")... ?

Manuel Johnen

Hello, it's me! The same guy complaining every time from Jay's "Villeneuve" pronunciation. It's pronounced "Vilnov". Well, not EXACTLY that, but it's very close. Certainly closer than "Vilaynoo". I look forward to your next Quebecer's name mispronounciation so I can feel like I am remotely important in this world. :P

Vincent

The South Park episode "The New Terrance and Phillip Movie" is great. Russell Crowe and his tugboat Tugger are "Making movies, making songs 'n fight-in' round the world."

Marvin Falz

I love that we are all greatly concerned for their well-being.

Lol. Nolan is wrong though.......SPOILER FOR MANK. It makes all the business sense in the world what AT&T is doing. It reminds me of that scene in Mank where Louis B. Mayer proudly declares that "[show] business is where the buyer gets nothing for his memory but a memory. What he bought still belongs to the man who sold it," then turns around and cuts the salaries of his employees by half while mustering a fake tear and all. Ars gratia artis? Life imitates art, in this instance, however and WB is transitioning into Netflix's much better business model ( compare the two companies' P/E ratio) at the expense of theaters and co-investors for the films releasing in 2021 on HBO Max.

Two mikes. The only people to watch Apple+TV.

AllGoodNamesRGone

Yup, the guys seriously need to discuss Possessor, and Mank, obviously.

schopi

I got a free year of Apple+TV. The *only* show I watched was the Beastie Boys documentary.

Mike St Louis

I loved the bit where Mike was imagining Jay with a warped face and shit. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Panda S

Love it, fellas. Great to see another quick rap by Mike, Jay is back to the fade, and you guys keeping busy by watching the best and worst of what Hollywood has to offer. Please be safe. I was curious if you guys were going to address the recent streaming news and you did.

AllGoodNamesRGone

Also, speaking of streaming shit, you gonna look at Mandalorian season 2 soon?

Matt Roberts

You guys called it. Nolan is PISSED at WB. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/christopher-nolan-rips-hbo-max-as-worst-streaming-service-denounces-warner-bros-plan

Matt Roberts

Holy shit. Is that fat suit a joke? That's the worst fat suit I've ever seen in a movie. I do LOVE hammy (har har) Russel Crow roles, though. The man also has impeccable comedic timing. For all of his faults, he's a great actor. Anyway, Greyhound seems like exactly my kind of movie. Like A Bridge Too Far: it's all about the nitty gritty details of how a given event in WWII was done. I love that kind of verisimilitude and seeing something dedicated to all the technical details of war. By the way, you subverted my expectations with the lack of a third spit take.

Neil Peart, Lord of Drums

I think/hope that they do a stand-alone episode on Mank or maybe a two film combo ep with it. I hope Jay talks about Possessor in the next episode... :D

Rachel Snead

Do kids know Tom and Jerry? Hell, do parents know Tom and Jerry?

Greg Milos

You both look great! Stay safe โ™ฅ๏ธ

Lee

Isn't he dreamy?

Rhea

Speaking of HBO shows, I'd highly recommend Succession and The Righteous Gemstones. Two shows about ridiculously wealthy, mostly horrible people and their crumbling empires. You guys gonna talk about Mank?

Rhea

This was a wonderful way to start the week, thanks guys. This also reminded me I wanted to check out Greyhound.

Jessie Zimmer

I never gave Doom Patrol much thought but now I want to try it out.

Yarn From Space

please please please have a Mike and Rich talk about Doom Patrol! such an underrated show

Stephenn

Appreciate that you started providing time codes for the YT videos :)

Katy

"When you said it's like "The Village" it made "Sense" what was "Happening"..." Oh, MIke, you're sooo good... <3

Manuel Johnen

Eggnog for everyone!

Lisa

I watched the cartoon instead. Love that movie.

Jessie Zimmer

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ˜Ž

Joseph Mazza

Be happy you guys didn't watch the live action Mulan.

Joshua Mannix

I clapped, I clapped when I saw this notification!!!
