An all timer

It's still up, just not in the collection. I had to search to find it!

Chris Murphy

Damn where’s the 3rd movie?

Dude from earth

Where did goldmember go?

Alex Solliday

“Mike Myers pulls off some hilarious moments in this crude but funny comedy”, raves the Christian Science Monitor

Andy P

The "Opening the Austin Power card packs" is weaponized boredom, sorry guys. Love you though.

Jack Connor

Maybe it’s due to my age. But I LOVE the live-action THE CAT IN THE HAT.

Ian Smart

The Gong Show reboot was so good, you guys

Jeffrey Malone

I know this opens me up for ridicule, but this movie, for as unfunny as it is, isn’t the least funny movie I’ve ever seen. People LOVE, Step Brothers, and I straight up, dislike that film.

Scott Carberry

I hate you guys for making me watch this. I was half tempted to go get a rectal exam after I watched this.

Jacob Fisher

"this isn't what life or anything is" truly our finest film critic

Thanks for posting this!

Scott Carberry

I toggle between watching/listening depending on if I want to watch the movie. for example I will watch some of The Terminators. Also hating The Joker is not surprising for two Non Midnight Tokers. the drums in Steve Miller songs are groovy af

Austin McDougle

Correct me if I’m wrong, but Jonas Cooper = JonaScooper? Because he’s scooping? The best card I’m sure.

Charlie Kessler

I... I don't understand... Why would you do this to me...

It brings me absolutely no pleasure to report that Daniel Tosh has a podcast. It is advertised constantly on iHeartRadio.

Happy new year from australia blankies! Strong chaotic start for 2024 and i love it. The kanye appearence was the best part of this movie and im only comfortable saying that phrase on this patreon comment section.

I started meditating (and listening to Blank Check) in about 2016. I was trying to see if I could make use of the DMT in my brain. I did a bunch of research and basically put my own thing together. So Ben’s kind of right that it’s brain washy, but I have been brainwashing myself. Anyway, I am a happier chap these days and very rarely have confrontations with people or situations anymore. So, I guess I’m suggesting DIY spiritualism. This movie should have been more cynical about gurus. Would’ve made for better jokes, or jokes at all. Well, I did like the book titles and Steven Colbert.

Matthew Comegys

So as a veteran of the card game back in the day I will say they had a pretty good balance; the distribution of rares and power levels was fine and the only real reason to chase down this or that was because you wanted an Austin wearing whatever. Thaat said this fucking movie was unendurable, it is easily the most unwatchable shit you have ever featured on this pod and it was delightful to hear you going at it

Unfortunately I'm a watcher still....

Isaiah Bornman

I've actually seen The Love Guru twice before this was dropped, so there was no chance I was gonna watch-a-long. It was so bad I rewatched it with a friend to essentially prove all the stuff I described to them was real. But the experience was basically comparable to witnessing some wild homeless man shitting on the corner behavior then instead of just leaving it at describing the story to your friend actually dragging them to that homeless man and demanding they drop trou and repeat the experience. So yeah...not watching it again. Fun to hear other people have to watch it though.

FWIW Manu Narayan has had a big Broadway career post-Pitka

I can’t help but imagine Griffin sitting in an accountant’s office in March explaining why he thinks he can write off 30 packs of Austin Powers collectible cards

Champagne and Gummy bears

Only half way done so not sure if it’s mentioned, but this film is worth it because it helped Romany Malco find love. He ended up meeting his wife who plays Jessica Alba’s stunt double.

Percy Leopold Cromwell

My dad is a lifelong Leafs fan, and he's the only person I know who saw this movie.

K. Robert Roy

The power of Christ compels you! (doing a little exorcism on this title).

Brian Case

The Wildest commentary ep of blank check patreon history

Tom

Well that was incredibly bad. 0/10 😂 what was that ? I didn’t realize how bad this movie was. But Mike should have came back and not wanted so long. It’s just 1 bad movie out of 8, actually 2 including cat and the hat.

Dude from earth

Wow, l watched this movie one time with my family of 7, and by the end, everyone left the living room 😂 it was just me and my mom by the end. We both love silly movies, so we finished it, but even we thought this was straight garbage!! But I’m happy to watch it again after so many years with the blank check crew. I don’t even remember what happens in this movie. 🤣 I’m about 10 mins in right now, and I’m already done. But either way, I’m excited! I wonder how much money we all gave this movie? 😂 can’t believe l paid $3 for it.

Dude from earth

Happy New Year! 🩷 u guyz

Laura Parent

Happy New Year. I also discovered Blank Check in 2023.

Tiago Augusto Souza Barreiro

2023 was the year I discovered this nonsense. Blankful and thankful.

Chase Kimball

As ill advised as The Love Guru is, it still has more laughs than 3 series of Ricky Gervais’ After Life

Garry L

Happy new year friends. Blank it!

xavierrn

Oh God, it's finally here! Run for your lives!!

What an omen for things to come in 2024.
