I mentioned it before on the show, but I’m currently working on a short movie. So, this means my time on weekends has been pretty much nonexistent as of late and I haven’t had the time to do the show. Yeah, it’s a crappy excuse, but I just wanted to let y’all know why the show hasn’t been coming out and that I’m–in fact–still alive. As always, thanks so much for supporting us. We’ll try to be back as soon as we can.
In the meantime, feel free to call me a bastard. This lady already has…
Yeah…yeah…we’re late again with the episode. To be fair, I’ve been really busy with the “real” world. And, I’m shooting a short movie that’s dominating my time…
On this week’s episode, Jennie and I tackle (get it, tackle?) Darrin Aronofsky’s The Wrestler. Does it live up to all the hype? Or, does it fall flat on its face while attempting a reverse hammer-head-pile-driver (In case you’re wondering…I made that move up. ) And, what’s up with Mickey Rourke’s creepy fingernails? I’m serious…they freak me out.
In news, the Golden Globes are over and done with and Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire has emerged victorious. The Watchmen dispute between Fox and Warner Brothers has finally reached a settlement, so nerds everywhere can now rejoice. Also, Jackie Chan has been cast as a “Mr. Myagi” character in the upcoming remake of the Karate Kid starring Will Smith’s son Jayden.
Finally, based upon the request of our loyal listener Brandon, Jennie and I discuss the WORST MOVIE EVER. It’s Zombie Strippers. It stars Jenna Jameson and Freddy Krueger. And, no it’s not a porn (though it may just be as bad as one).
Until next time, kids…thanks for watchng and listening.
Happy New Year from Jennie and myself! We kick off 2009 by talking about what we know best—movies. On this episode, we countdown our Top Ten favorite movies of 2008. So, gear up for cliché end of the year critic snobbery.
Also on this episode, Jennie and I talk about David Fincher’s newest epic, The Curioius Case of Benjamin Button. Is it a masterpiece, or as some people are saying, just a lame a rehash of Forrest Gump? Watch to find out…
Finally, we reveal the winner of our 75th anniversary contest. Thanks to all who entered and participated. We both really appreciate it.
Thanks for watching/and listening. Here’s to a great 2009!
In case you’re too lazy to read it in the show notes, here’s all the info you need on our 75th Anniversary contest. In honor of crossing this milestone, you—our loyal listeners and hated adversaries—get a shot at winning a free DVD. At first, we were thinking of giving away a diamond ring, but then we realized that we’re cheapskates…
Here’s the dealio: Look at THIS PICTURE and figure out what movie posters the letters come from. Each number corresponds to a different movie. E-mail your entry with as many correct answers as you can come up with to wme@lucky9studios.com. Also, be sure to include your name and location. Winner receives a free DVD of the movie Hellride as well as the ability to choose the next “Worst Movie Ever” that we discuss on the show. Contest ends when I say it ends (not quite sure yet )
*Note/Hint: If the letter happens to come from a “series,” I’ll except any movie from that series…
Oh, and if for some reason the link ain’t working, I’ve conviently included the image below. I’m just cool like that:
Wow…it only took 75 episodes, but Jennie and I have finally managed to shoot the worst one yet. Seriously, I can’t believe we made it this long…
Between giggles and bad green screen effects, I manage to discuss the new Ron Howard film Frost/Nixon. Also, Jennie and I choke our way through the newest Golden Globe nominations. Apart from Heath Ledger’s nomination, the Dark Knight sort of got f-ed.
Oh, because the 75th anniversary is the diamond anniversary (according to Jennie…Guys don’t know that kind of stuff…), we list our Top Five Movies about/having/relating to diamonds. Yeah, it’s sort of a stretch. Then again, so is spandex.
Finally, In honor of our 75th episode, we’re holding a contest. That’s right, the goal is to look at THIS PICTURE and figure out what movie posters the letters come from. E-mail your entry with as many correct answers as you can come up with to wme@lucky9studios.com. Winner receives a free DVD of the movie Hellride as well as the ability to choose the next Worst Movie Ever! we discuss on the show. Contest ends when I say it ends (not quite sure yet )
