Finally got time to listen to this ep and the Prince of Thieves validation I’m experiencing right now is exquisite. It rips.

Agreed. The waterworld action spectacular can not be undersold. The movie crawled so that attraction could fly. 10/10. Five stars. 0 irony.

I was thinking of even less, just water. Just the foreboding, choppy sea.
Summer 1995.
Kevin Costner.
Waterworld.
Deal with it.

The movie from the universal custom logo to the mariner turning his piss into water… 10/10. five stars.

This episode absolutely slaps. I’m dead at the visual of the studio people signing off, level after level, on The Mariner being introduced while recycling his own piss to drink.

The poster should have just been Costner on his tiny raft in the center of the poster and then just zoom out so the rest of the poster is just open ocean. No land visible, just one man, one tiny rate, and hundreds of miles of open ocean

Great episode but I respectfully disagree with David's curmudgeonly take on theme parks.

Yeah, I normally defend their hot takes even if I don't agree, but the only thing that rips about PoT is Rickman's performance. Remove that and even Freeman and Matrantonio can't save it from mediocrity.

Was the intro narration done by the OG “in a world” guy?? What a blast 1995 was

David calling out Tarantino's incongruous punch up in Crimson Tide is so reaffirming to me. They might as well have a chyron running on the bottom of the screen telling audiences that Quentin's Comix Corner is coming up

To hear the cultural take on Waterworld at the time just listen to Dana Carvey’s standup special that replayed 10000x on Comedy Central.
Here’s the clip (forest gump and waterworld):

Griffin, darling, Prince of Thieves most certainly does not rip.

Saying Pluto is your favorite (Dwarf) planet is like saying Ringo is your favorite Beatle. Its a totally valid choice, but a lot of people choose it just to pick something out of left field.

I still can’t figure out. Why the Kim Coates scene made the Theatrical Cut?
Other then Costner was so amazed by that performance.

Long time blankie and patroon member. I hardly ever comment and I hate that this is what I’m chiming in for.
Edge lord spoiler….
David’s Costner at approx 26 min in sounds EXACTLY like Rick Sanchez voice during his song “get shwifty”
…like mike cane “size of a tangerine” perhaps that may be the trick to a good Costner…
Idk I’ll see myself out.

Robert Altman's "Popeye" is the other big "structure based" movie.

The platonic ideal of a Blank Check episode. The entire Costner series is worth it for this one.

Watching this after The Postman, it is absolutely insane how much that movie is another take on this one, but not on water. He really thought "well I could do it better" and failed even harder.

And the analysis about the Irish relationship to land ownership is spot on.
Kerry Browne

Listening to the Open Range episode and I really appreciated the whole segment covering depiction of the Irish in it! My parents were born there and I will never forget watching Open Range on AMC, hearing Gabbon's end monologue and my dad walking through the living room and saying "of course the bad guys are Irish". I can't recall him ever making a similar complaint so it stuck out.
I also really liked Open Range but hated that part of it so it was really appreciated hearing you guys take it to task.

Pocket Cast here too… it’s told me that “the feed for this podcast has stopped trying to update due to too many errors.”
I had it retry several hours ago to no result.

go for a long walk, it’ll come next week. They have a dense backlog that you can go through if you’re bored, just try to be patient. There was a commentary literally last week.

No commentary???! This Patreon is like a Parent with Halloween candy. Only one treat a week. Why couldn’t y’all give a commentary and Waterworld ?Ugh 😩 l love this podcast so much but I truly hate how long they take for commentaries to come out. It’s going to be 2027 until we get American Pie 😂❤️
