2022-01-16 16:48:39 +0000 UTCAs soon as the Beatles album question came up I was like "Ben is going to be a White Album person like me" & I was very happy to be right.

2022-01-15 19:16:00 +0000 UTCGriffin half-asking “what’s your favorite Rutles album” is everything I love about this fucking podcast

2022-01-15 16:27:36 +0000 UTCI'm sorry but David is clearly Paul as the leader of the Beatles

2022-01-15 01:04:11 +0000 UTCDid the rumor of Old Dogs having a R-rated cut start with Barry Sonnenfeld’s RV? I’m watching it now on cable and I think I remember reading about how the script or the first cut was different and had more of an edge like the first Vacation, but they thought it’d sell better as a family film? Both films were released around the same time and Old Dogs was a much weirder film, I wonder if people flip-flopped the two since RV is kind of forgettable (I like it) and hoped Old Dogs was even more bizarre.

2022-01-14 17:21:50 +0000 UTCFuck David’s video game podcast, when do we get David’s podcast of the wives of Henry VIII!

2022-01-13 16:51:33 +0000 UTCBEN IS LAVA. Thanks for responding to my question! I am fully here to support Griffin’s Charmy the Bee quest.

2022-01-13 03:30:02 +0000 UTCBen just casually dropping gems like pocket rock and upside-down Spider-Man showings. He's operating on another level from the rest of us

2022-01-13 01:30:58 +0000 UTCThanks you guys! If the next spidey isnt screened with us all upside down I will be very upset

2022-01-12 20:28:41 +0000 UTCHahahah the flip side of everyone's favorite Griffin pitch "Penny Marshall Garry Marshall back to back"

2022-01-12 19:37:19 +0000 UTCI LOVED the astrology reading. Stuff I’ve been wondering for awhile!
Jessica B
2022-01-12 18:50:34 +0000 UTCConceptual miniseries pitch that’s probably been made before: combo Paul W.S. Anderson and Paul Thomas Anderson series, going simultaneously through both filmographies chronologically, so… Shopping, Mortal Kombat, Hard Eight, Event Horizon, Boogie Nights etc etc through Monster Hunter and Licorice Pizza
Parker Winship
2022-01-12 16:32:20 +0000 UTCOne of my favourite parts of the commentaries is when Ben is enjoying a movie he is seeing for the first time, and I also love when the guys are like "Oh Ben you HAVE to see _____, you would love it. Total Ben movie". I want a boys choice for Ben. Get to hear Ben find out about a Ben's choice in real time!

2022-01-12 15:00:00 +0000 UTCThe fact that Gonzo wasn't even mentioned ...livid.

2022-01-12 06:35:04 +0000 UTCListening to Ben discussing potential Ben’s Choices caused an epiphany. This is the official start of the campaign to make TREMORS a Ben’s Choice

2022-01-11 23:18:04 +0000 UTCThanks for not spoiling No Way Home even though it's been out for a bit now, those of us who can't go to theatres (or whose theatres are closed cuz of omicron) appreciate it!
Inspector Tiger
2022-01-11 20:28:46 +0000 UTCThem laying out how many movies are coming out in the next two years is so…god I don’t even have a word for the emotion.

Skye Payne
2022-01-11 17:37:16 +0000 UTCCompromise for Marvel: Just have a Phase 4 Recap-tacular episode. 3 hours long episode (not commentary) and cover them all. Or break into 2 parts. Would save you all time re-watching them and wouldn't clog up the feed for months.
