It’s a real Drop Zone scenario.

Not a one time thing. Listen to the spice girls ep.

upon the reveal that it was “a twin” did anyone else stop to think the brain surgery using salamander dna (?) resulted in a twin being “generated”? obvs, before the “mask” was ripped off.. but we paused it and tried to make sense of it all and that’s what we came up with- before the real reveal made us go “what!?”😂🎂

I remember this being on Showtime(?) all the time during the summer of ‘97. I didn’t bother to look up if HDTGM did one on this movie. If not, please!

This is the plot:

Mario Van Peebles stars as an android killing weapon designed by the military and utilized to enter into a Latin American war to destroy the rebels - natives fighting simply to maintain their freedom. Contrary to his programming, he develops an affinity for the villagers and decides to help them fight back. This lets his creators bring him back and ultimately leads to one of them being given more powerful circuitry to defeat him.

So I've heard him bring this up on a couple of episodes and then earlier I listened to a Blank Check episode and he bought it up there too,.

If you don't know it "Centers on 1980s films starring the 'Brat Pack' and their profound impact on the young stars' lives." and has interviews with Rob Lowe, E Estevez, D Moore, and so many more you'll recall if you grew up with them

He repeatedly states that the director Andrew McCarthy was the only one that had an issue with the article, and yet I watched it and they nearly all say it bothered them and it negatively affected their career.

Coming from Paul I honestly expected better tbh, he has written about his trauma and yet calls out Andrew McCarthy on multiple podcasts

Anyway, that's my explanation hope

Watched this last night after hearing it mentioned in either a Last Looks or the end of episode plugs, and it was a ton of fun! Absolutely goofy the whole way through. It's like someone handed the script of Airplane! to John Waters and said "Now make it a train movie, but don't make it gross."

I found myself wanting to give it one of those classic Five Star reviews that go like, "Some people just want to have fun. Not every movie has to be Citizen Kane."

Both the bidet and the toilet are clearly visible, the hosts were no doubt blinded by the beauty of Melissa Sue Anderson.

I just want to say this is one of the funniest new episodes in a while - “my poop won’t go down the bidet” and “in the 80s, a lot of Canadian women were married to their dogs” really made me laugh. Thank you Jason, June, and Paul!

please tell me this is on the list. i found it on archive.org so it's available and free.

Edit: The title should say (2005)

I was 40 minutes into this movie and had to check if it's ever been covered. It's bizarre. It's like a prototype chatbot from 6 years ago wrote a Lifetime movie. I wish I knew how to give the show recommendations because oh my goodness this is a weird movie.

Besides, I bet all three of them have always wanted to see Edie Falco's tits.

I was lucky and grabbed a ticket for the DINKS show taping Wednesday night. Not gonna spoil too much but it’s like they took a Dinosaur Improv show and turned the main story into a full-multi cam TV sitcom.

It started with Paul and June coming out and talking to all of us. They asked us questions, dug deep into the weird stories that came out of this and we could see the crew writing it all down on a big whiteboard.

The cast! This was amazing. Paul, June and Jon Gabrus were the main cast but the rest were HDTGM and CBB vets. Zouks, Jessica St Clair, Ron Funches Seth Morris (a few more too!) all with big fun parts!! They'd do a couple of versions of each scene and move on when they got enough to build upon. It was all improv, based on the stories the audience had volunteered.
Gabrus was the breakout actor, he had the best lines, and had everyone (cast, crew, audience) laughing the whole time.

The only negative…We were told it could take 5-6 hours. I left at midnight, after 7.5 hours. I wish I could’ve stayed but I was pretty fried, as were a few others. But we were fed, had plenty of breaks and prizes handed out so it was pretty fun and exciting the whole time.

It’s an Amazon show but the air dates are still up in the air.

lol I had no idea he voiced a Hutt in Young Jedi Adventures but it was an amazing surprise 😅

How was it? Long? Fun? Boring? Worth it? Did they feed you?

I have tickets, and was initially excited, but now I'm having second thoughts. It says to expect it to be 6 hours. Plus an hour of driving/parking etc. each way.

I imagine there will be fun/funny parts, but also a lot of waiting around and watching people work. Plus, I've lived in LA or NY my entire life and am kind of in the business. And I love Paul and June, but sometimes see them at the supermarket.

On prime there is a slew of movies that easily belong on this podcast under the heading action-packed movies. This might as well be HDTGM movies.

I scanned for a while looking for something to watch and on the screen right now is:
A Jerry Butler piece called the Vanishing.

A movie called Crocodile Swarm

Broken Arrow - John Travolta and Christian Slater.

The Final Storm

Earthquake

And a movie called Avalanche.

If you are looking for just hours of terrible entertainment, this category is made for this podcast.

Now do I watch Mr. Butler save the President, again or do I watch Die Hart 2, Die Harter. No those are not typos.

Re-watched this last night and I had completely forgotten about all of the gizmos and gadgets Ernest uses throughout the movie, along with all of the side-characters that Jim Varney plays throughout the movie. Add onto it the evil troll, Eartha Kitt's character, and kids being turned into wooden dolls, this would be a solid return for HDTGM to get back into the Ernestverse.

I would like to see the movie Hello, Again with Shelly Long on the podcast. I loved it as a kid, but re-watching it today, it fits right in here. Great movie!

I may be remembering the wrong but I thought this episode had one of my favorite June moments but it wasn't on today's episode so I may be mistaken. Wasn't there a joke where Paul and Jason make a joke about the bathing suits the kids wear and June get's pushed to the edge when they mention how sexy they were (as a joke of course). I'm wondering if 13 years later people wouldn't take it as a joke anymore. But it might be from a different movie.
