RoboDoc “like Shoah for Robocop” made me laugh so hard

2024-07-03 00:47:16 +0000 UTCIts been a bit since ive seen it but i thought it was pretty explicit about him literally not existing before the movie starts. Either way its time for a rewatch, this movie fuckin rips

2023-11-28 23:27:12 +0000 UTCI don't agree with the "he was created by them". I saw it more as a wickerman type of situation. He was chosen to be the empty man because of his situation.

2023-11-19 05:31:15 +0000 UTCI was trying to think of the name of a horror movie I really liked, and had recommended to my brother, but didn’t feel like scrolling through many many texts to find it. It’s this one, thanks!

2023-11-17 02:50:50 +0000 UTCThe fugitive has the best late title drop of all time. Titles don’t start until the prison bus is on the road and you already feel like you’ve seen a whole movie by then as Harrison ford - the biggest actor on the planet - just went from happily married surgeon to widowed convict

2023-11-16 23:26:01 +0000 UTCThe Autopsy is worth a look for Prior fans. F Murray Abraham is fantastic. Won’t fully satisfy the craving for more Prior though, the final product is pretty good at best. (Which actually makes it one of the best Cabinet episodes. I want to say here too that I hope there’s more of that show solely because GDT is so much fun as a horror anthology presenter. His voice and his gait and his big glasses telling you all about a spooky story you’re about to see…A+ stuff)

2023-11-16 16:00:21 +0000 UTCI had never heard the term "tulpa" before this podcast ep. You'd think decades of reading Grant Morrison, Alan Moore and the like I would have come accross this before.... Anyway, thank you.

2023-11-15 20:30:28 +0000 UTCFuckin’ a. I was wondering if it was also some native language? Maybe it’s both and the sounds are similar, for that reason?

2023-11-15 20:23:41 +0000 UTCMost of the mouth sounds in the movie are mouthing “took a turn” which is what the nurse says about climber guy Tulpa

2023-11-14 01:01:33 +0000 UTCI love that you’re hitting the Reddit misconceptions so hard this ep. I literally just saw that post last night.

2023-11-13 20:08:42 +0000 UTCDAYS OF FUTURE PAST is still the best X-Men movie. Honestly the best of the entire FoX-Men canon.

2023-11-13 02:09:17 +0000 UTCMy barber loved this movie and recommended it to me. He's younger than me, has a cooler hairdo, and watches movies/tv as background noise all day so I trust his judgement!

2023-11-12 19:41:35 +0000 UTCStandoff At Sparrow Creek rules. JBD has an incredible interrogation scene with Robert Aramayo, the creepy beatnik in The Empty Man

Anna Louise Wiegenstein
2023-11-12 02:39:22 +0000 UTCStandoff at Sparrow Creek is a FIRE THRILLER and Producer Ben MUST check out the Demon Bear arch of New Mutants (from which the lackluster (very charmingly cast) movie takes (some) inspiration)

2023-11-11 21:47:59 +0000 UTCJames Badge Dale does not live through the Departed. He commits a sudden murder and is then murdered suddenly.

2023-11-11 08:52:40 +0000 UTCone of the best horror movies of the decade. jazzed as hell for the weird places the tangents will go
Jordan B. Anderson
2023-11-11 05:52:49 +0000 UTCYes!!! I just showed my roommate this movie for our Halloween watch, and I never expected the two friends to cover it. What a treat.
Joshua Bauer
2023-11-11 05:52:31 +0000 UTCI think this movie rules and I'm so glad you're doing an episode on it.
