286 - BOWFINGER

It is Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F release day and the start of our Eddie Murphy Month, we’re playing not-the-hits but some of his others. Starting off with Steve Martin and Frank Oz’s Hollywood satire, a film that Andrew holds dear to his understanding of the world and art, and Johnny brings his brain to many ‘what-if-this-film-got-Bowfingered’ scenarios.

226 - THE PRODUCERS

It’s time to pitch the worst podcast in the world, a guaranteed flop, this show won’t last the night! It’s Mel Brooks’ masterpiece of comedy satire, and NOT the Broadway musical or film adaptation of the Broadway musical, despite Johnny’s best efforts. We’re going back to the source, taking a fine sip of Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder, and pitching a Star Wars musical that’ll make big bucks for those behind the show, and nobody else.

224 - SOUTHLAND TALES - THE CANNES CUT

Here we go, the one everyone’s been demanding. Andrew discovered that Universal has had the Cannes Cut of the iconic sci-fi apocalypse comedy satire on iTunes for a while, and as the Arrow blu ray release comes closer, it’s time to show Johnny not only Southland Tales, but the 160 minute thicker version, with less exposition and more comic asides. Johnny is not on board, but Andrew’s new twin Aaron seems happy with the situation, and offers an option to make the world end.

220 - IDIOCRACY

Judging December ends with a look back at a Straight-To-DVD comedy, and looks forward to the year 2505, with Idiocracy. Will Johnny’s new love of Office Space transfer to the Etan Cohen-co-written satire, or will the world as we now know it provide too much painful hilarity that not even Mike Judge could have anticipated?
