EP029 – The Incredible Shrinking Woman (1981)

The Incredible Shrinking Woman movie Poster

Highlights from Episode 28:

  • Joel Schumacher’s feature film debut and not a single batsuit nipple in sight.
  • Spaghetti Arms: the psychological phenomenon of confusing two people that share the same first name (e.g., Patrick Stewart vs Patrick Swayze, Christopher Walken vs Christopher Lloyd, etc).
  • Kathleen needs ten minutes to give the six minute synopsis.
  • We sample some fun beers from Streetside Brewery out of Cincinnati:
    • Bert Got Dum: A raspberry lemon wedding cake milkshake IPA with the lemon drop hop. Also, “wedding cake milkshake lemon drop hop” sounds like a complicated 1950s dance craze.
    • F*** It We’ll do it Lime: a key lime pie gose. (Goose? Goes? Goze? Gooze?)
  • Shockingly nobody hated this movie!
  • We all agree Lily Tomlin is a national treasure.
  • This movie has a great many layers of symbolism and social commentary on unregulated chemical manufacturing, rampant consumerism, irresponsible marketing, gender roles in patriarchal society, and the concept of mental load. Also, we may have been drinking.
  • Dave learns not every clam chowder joke is funny.
  • Nobody likes when Pete (or anyone) says “creamy mouthfeel.”
  • Equally gross is a character’s suggestion of having “an open mind and an open mouth.”
  • We discuss whether sex works when one partner is 8 inches tall and the other is Charles Grodin. The phrase “hugging a telephone pole” is used, and no one is happy about it.
  • Replacing Troy’s regular coffee with Folger’s Flavor Crystals may end very poorly.
  • When it comes to what’s going on in her kitchen, Kathleen is a clueless 1950s husband.
  • Kathleen learns Bulgogi is a real thing.
  • The theme song for the fictional product “Galaxy Glue” is a hateful, hateful ear worm.
  • Six pack ratings:
    • Kathleen: 2
    • Troy: 1
    • Pete: 2
    • Dave: 2

EP028 – The Avengers (1998)

The Avengers (1998)

Highlights from Episode 28:

  • Once again, our listeners chose this horrible movie for us via online poll. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice…
  • The cast tries to avoid talking about the movie by discussing more pleasant topics, like what happens to your poop after eating beets.
  • Our awesome friends at GBBMN Australia managed to provide us with wonderful beer from Kaiju Brewing that definitely did not involve illegally transporting beer across state and international borders or smuggling things in rectums.
  • Troy attempts an Australian accent. Troy should not attempt an Australian accent.
  • We learn all critical reviews of The Avengers (1998) fall embarrassingly short of the actual viewing experience.
  • Can you pronounce the word “herbaceous?” Pete can’t!
  • Seriously, the movie sucked so bad we did everything we could to keep from talking about it.
  • Watching The Avengers (1998) is analogous to trying to assemble a jigsaw puzzle except
    • 25% of the pieces are missing
    • the picture on the box is different than the puzzle
    • someone is stabbing you.
  • Eddie Izzard is criminally underutilized in this film.
  • We may be drunk by the end.
  • Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts, then send us your address to get a sticker!
  • Ratings:
    • Kathleen: 5
    • Troy: 6
    • Pete: 5
    • Dave: 5

Choose the next bad movie again!

The first Good Beer Bad Movie Night movie poll did so well we thought we’d subject ourselves to further punishment. Once again we invite you, our dear listeners, to choose the next cinematic outrage to foist upon our trembling cast.

The Choices

(shudder)

Attack of the 50 Foot Cheerleader (2012)



Plot: Aspiring college cheerleader, Cassie Stratford consumes an experimental drug that grants her beauty and enough athletic ability to make the cheer squad. The drug has an unforeseen side effect – Cassie starts to grow and grow and grow.

Athletes will go to such lengths to improve performance. Tsk tsk.

Zapped! (1982)

Plot: A high school science nerd gains telekinetic powers after a laboratory accident and uses them for revenge upon bullies.

And commit various acts of sexual harassment, evidently.

The Sword and the Sorcerer (1982)

Plot: A mercenary with a three-bladed sword rediscovers his royal heritage’s dangerous future when he is recruited to help a princess foil the designs of a brutal tyrant and a powerful sorcerer in conquering a land.

It’s three, three, three blades in one!

The Avengers (1998)

Plot: Two British Agents team up to stop Sir August de Wynter from destroying the world with a weather-changing machine.

Please don’t choose this one. I like a joke as much as the next guy but seriously.

Krull (1983)

Plot: A prince and a fellowship of companions set out to rescue his bride from a fortress of alien invaders who have arrived on their home planet.

Early screen appearances of Liam Neeson and Robbie Coltrane!

EP024 – War of the Gargantuas (1966)

Highlights from Episode 24

  • Troy and Pete serenaded the cast with a musical surprise. Here’s the cover Devo recorded. Who did it better?

    • Pete 1
