The Chosen Ones settle down for kung-foolishness, and work out which film would be the most offensive to re-edit and dub over.
Spoiler: it is Schindler’s List.
101 - BEE MOVIE
The internet’s favourite meme becomes an episode, where Johnny contemplates how a human/insect romance could sustain and Andrew pitches various spin-offs, including Tree Movie with Chris Pine and… Willow Smith.
100 - MAMMA MIA!: HERE WE GO AGAIN
It’s episode 100 and Johnny believes we’re watching Highlander 2: The Quickening. Cher, Jim Broadbent and Sean Harris pop in to prepare for the ultimate ABBA experience.
099 - CORALINE 3D
Johnny freaks out about button eyes, whilst Andrew wonders if there’s anything he’d want that’d be worth sewing his own shut. PG horror films and Laika’s output also get thrown in the mix over the course of the show. And anticipation for episode 100.
098 - BEETLEJUICE
Brace yourselves because Alec Baldwin pops back into the studio to talk about Tim Burton’s classic, whilst Andrew regails us of the time he pissed off the sweetest person in the world, Catherine O’Hara. Say her name three times, I dare ya.
097 - HOTEL CHEVALIER & THE DARJEELING LIMITED
We close out the Wes Anderthon with a double-header, and discuss spiritual journies, Wally Wolodarsky as a person and Owen Wilson’s… thing. All as Johnny watches the England Sweden match in the hopes that this becomes an historic document.
096 - CADDYSHACK
Happy Fourth Of July (We’re All Gonna Die (Sufjan Stevens)), we take a break from Wes Anderson to focus on his muse Bill Murray, and a comedy classic full of fireworks and good ol’ American slobs V snobs hijinks. Johnny tries to wrap his mind around the concept of Rodney Dangerfield and Andrew pitches a gender-swap remake once more. TIME’S UP!
095 - THE LIFE AQUATIC WITH STEVE ZISSOU
God help Andrew as Johnny finds a way to explain what a horcrux is, whilst the two discuss Jeff Goldblum’s sex appeal and living on a boat. All whilst kind-of watching The Nut Job 2: Nutty By Nature!
094 - THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS
Johnny dislikes the title of the Wes Anderson film that isn’t about Kings and Queens, Alec Baldwin narrates his own presence, and reminds us of his perfect Donald Trump impression, and Andrew sings some Klassic KoRn raps.
BONUS - SUPER TROOPERS 2
Well here we are, an entire week of pre-amble to the new Broken Lizard film, whilst Andrew tries to recall the houses of Hogwarts and Johnny discusses what he wants to watch on Netflix (Definitely recorded before the Me Too movement!)
BONUS - SUPER TROOPERS
The original film is discussed, a little, whilst Andrew pitches Helen Mirren vehicle DIRTY GRANDMA, the two talk HD-DVD versus Blu Ray and wonder what Brian Cox is even doing here.
BONUS - THE SLAMMIN' SALMON
We enter the seafood restaurant of nightmares and discuss potentials of a sitcom spin-off for the film, Michael Clarke Duncan’s comedy genius and pitch a kids film entitled ‘PIGEON WITCH’ starring Helen Mirren, Ben Whishaw and Maggie Smith. Money in the bank!
093 - RUSHMORE
We’re deep into Wes Anderson month now, with Andrew’s favourite Brian Cox-starring Anderson film, an introduction to Bill Murray Smoking and Andrew and Johnny break out a female-led remake of Rushmore.
BONUS - BEERFEST
Continuing the week of Broken Lizard movies, Andrew takes Johnny on a pub crawl, and Johnny stoically opposes Beer as a flavour, a liquid and a social lubricant, because he is a social lubric-unt.
BONUS - CLUB DREAD
Super Troopers 2 is out in the UK on June 15th, so in the build-up Andrew is showing Johnny most of Broken Lizard’s films, starting with the Bill Paxton horror-comedy, which is a film that exists.
092 - BOTTLE ROCKET
Wes Anderson Month begins with the realisation that not a single Wilson Brother will bother showing up to host. Wow. We also unleash a new competition, talk composition and prepare for the journey that falls before them.
091 - RAISING ARIZONA
Nicholas Cage’s parallel universe cousin returns to the show to cough up a discussion about The Coen Brothers’ work, whilst Andrew uses his Apple TV to do an increasingly bad series of jokes. Who will die?
090 - MARS ATTACKS!
Tim Burton’s 1996 sci-fi throwback is watched, Jack Nicholson impressions abound, whilst the duo discuss Frank Welker’s imdb page and call out to Alec Baldwin and Emma Roberts to come on the podcast.
089 - MARIE ANTOINETTE
Andrew brings forth Sofia Coppola’s last great film for Johnny’s staring gaze, and pitches the film ‘Dark Passengers’ to no avail.
088 - TREMORS
Hero Of The World Kevin Bacon has a degree in separating sandworms from their lives with the creature feature ‘Spoof’ (If Sky is to be believed) Tremors. Johnny gets down and dirty in the sand.
