Hey everyone, we were hoping to record our episode on Wild Wild West last weekend but a snow storm on the East Coast derailed our plans. We wanted to give you something for this month though so here's something we recorded a few months ago where Ryan & I go through some bizarre VHS tapes I had in storage from my childhood. This inspired a variety of discussions including; Shelley Duvall's Faerie Tale Theatre, the cinema of Yahoo Serious, the 1960's Three Stooges movies, Tom Green, Roberto Benigni's Pinocchio, Warriors of Virtue, Bill "You Can Call Me Ray" Saluga,  Jerry Lewis' The Day the Clown Cried, and a bunch more topics that don't relate to anything. 

Also, thank you to everyone who has sent something to the PO Box. I picked up the packages last week and we'll be discussing on the next Patreon episode. Stay tuned!

Now Jaws 3 is worse than 2, I personally disagree because you can talk about 3, what can you say about 2

Luke Gordnier

klasky csupo also did the wild thornberrys

Out on a limb is actually not out of print, you can get a dvd or bluray on Amazon

Dudley do right’s a fun movie, doesn’t deserve its 3.8 IMDb rating

Tom Kenny was going to play Popeye in the cancelled Sony animated movie .

Poor Yahoo was last in the news over here for getting kicked out of a rental property for non-payment, unfortunately

My dad collected a lot of dvds and Blu-rays so the ones he bought make up some of my collection.

Seriously? I may have to upgrade to a DVD

Can you speak to his appeal then? It seems like he came out of nowhere, made a couple of movies, and then vanished

Tom Goodwin

I think it's similar to the US, tbh. Young Einstein and Reckless Kelly were both hits, then he eventually made Mr Accident which I think was a bit of a bomb. Certainly not well-reviewed. After that he just gradually drifted out of the public view. Not sure if he upset the upset the wrong people or if he just felt his moment had passed. I wonder if he just didn't have much of contingency plan for what else he could do. Lots of other Australian actors in his position end up doing documentaries or hosting TV shows -- I have to imagine he got at least some offers. In contrast -- Paul Hogan of Crocodile Dundee fame still shows up semi-regularly in movies and on TV. He was also a big star here prior to Crocodile Dundee taking him global, tbf.

Trembling Colors

Speaking of The Rocketeer, there is a documentary about it's creator Dan Stevens on Amazon Prime.

Warriors of Virtue and Tank Girl used to get mixed up in my head, both have weird mutant kangaroo guys.

I remember getting the Shelley Duvall’s Faerie Tale Theater version of Rapunzel from the local library when I was verrrrry young. It was the first time I was exposed to the version of the story where the prince was blinded by thorns on the way down the tower. I can still picture blinded Jeff Bridges as the Prince in my mind’s eye. It doesn’t matter but I think it’s (roughly) la cahj oh fole. But it’s been years since I’ve studied any French.

Rosie does a pretty good Betty Rubble voice if I remember correctly. Dudley Do-Right has a couple things going for it: Alfred Molina in a very funny golfing outfit and Brendan Fraser being a hunky doofus, as expected. (Sidenote: hubby and I recently rewatched Monkeybone and Bedazzled, those might be good for the pod. Not Brendan Fraser-related, but we also rewatched Evolution that same weekend- that could be good, too!)

Mary and Steve

It hit all the right notes for my family Sci-fi funnies and Ivan Reitman for dad David Duchovny for mom Weird little alien creatures for my brother and I

Mary and Steve

This is a cool and fun episode, will there ever be an installment with Ryan’s videos or either of y’alls DVDs?

Mary and Steve

My parents still get those Critic’s Choice catalogs, they get Critic’s Choice Music catalogs too

Anthony Hoffman

George of the Jungle ruled! Saw it opening day with mom back in ‘98. Made over $100 million at the BO and eventually led Brendan F. to The Mummy.

Scott Ruisch

I managed a video store back in the day. We called Warriors of Virtue " Kangaroos of Virtue "

Jaws 3 is most certainly not better than Close Encounters of the Third Kind, which is thr real Jaws 2.

Wow, I think you just unlocked an early memory with this comment. My mom also rented us that Paul Reubens Pinocchio AND The Nightingale, which starred Mick Jagger as a Chinese emperor from our own public library.
