Trinity Dahmus

Would you guys ever consider a “worst of the decade” style month for some of the real stinkers that haven’t made “worst of 20xx” over the last 10 years Joey D From Pennsylvania!

BBB

Any advice for those interested in getting into podcasting? (besides “don’t” or “repent”) -Max from Berkeley

Craig Olinger

Would you ever do a cast on Lost in Yonkers? (Totally biased question as I'm an extra in the background of one scene) -CraigO from OrlandO

Ethan M

In honor of movie theaters reopening, what’s a film you’ve always wanted to see on the big screen but have never been able to? - Ethan from Providence

Joe Silva

With Father’s Day coming soon, what would be the movie that each of you would want to watch with your own big daddies when/if theaters fully reopen? Joe from Springfield mass

Silius

In honor of my thoughts, when the blue fuck are y'all going to do killer clowns from outer space? Love you. - Bloodfarts2000 from Tacoma, WA

Jeremy

Which character actor do you think needs/deserves his "Robert Forrester in Jackie Brown" moment the most?-Jeremy From THE ravenna ohio

Paul

What’s your rule for revising your film ratings on Letterbox? Do you often go back and change a movie rating after a period of time or are they set in stone? -Paul in San Francisco

Andrew Geddon

So I was about 8 or 9 years old when I saw "Hudson Hawk," and I had no idea what was going on when I saw it. All I remember about the movie was that Bruce Willis sings a song with Danny Aiello and that I found Sandra Bernhard frighting as a youth. Would you recommend a rewatch, or is this a movie better lost to the sands of time? - Andrew from Vancouver (WA)

Locke Becker

The guys have mentioned Scott Pilgrim on the show before and didn’t sound best impressed with it. For me it’s a “warts and all” favourite kind-of-deal and I’d love to hear a full episode on it someday. In the meantime however, are there any “videogame movies” the gang thinks are worth watching? We all know Ready Player One and Pixels are schlock, are there any titles out there you feel succeed at bringing the spirit of their original medium to the big screen? - Locke, UK

Torin Forst

What is more fun for you guys: Talking shit about a bad movie on the WHM feed, or praising the positives of the WLM selections? - Torin from Wisconsin

Clarity Morrison

When I was 12, I saw Signs with my family and after that scene with Joaquin Phoenix watching the shaky video of an alien--I just noped out of the theater and stayed in the arcade until the movie was over. For YEARS, the screechy violins from that movie would put me on edge and bring me right back. So, have you ever been that embarrassingly scared of a movie? Clarity from Central New Jersey (She/They pronouns)

Adam Sweeney

What movie did you see in theaters you were most disappointed by? Adam from Oswego, NY

David Lever

What remake would you cast out into the cenobite dimension as punishment for being shitty and unnecessary (David from Manchester, UK)

Kevin Pires

Is is just me, or would you guys love to see Nick Cage as the lead in a hard reboot of he original Hellraiser? I'm honestly undecided if I'd rather see him as Frank or Pinhead. This shit makes me chuckle 😂. - Kevin from The Bay

Conrad Silas

Who would win in a fight between Jason Bourne and James Bond? And how long would it take Bourne to win? - Conrad, Oxford, UK.

Clint Rivas

Have any of you ever pretended to enjoy a movie (but secretly disliked) just because your love interest liked / loved?

Steven sadauskas

What's the most memorable theater experience you all have had? -Steve from Astoria Queens

Matthew Hutton

As we all become Grampies (I was born in 83..... No shade thrown) do you find yourselves becoming nostalgic for 90's stuff that you didn't even like at the time? For instance I hated Third Eye Blind when they were rising to power but listening to them now warms my heart. Thanks for the endless entertainment fellas Matty from Portland, Maine.

Brew Berry

What are your best and worst experiences with theater food? - Brew from Florida

Julia Petro

Would you rather: Watch one of the original LOTR trilogy (extended edition) every day, once a day for one month OR have to sleep through late 90s DVD menu screens on full volume every night for a month (no ear plugs)?

HeadwoundARGH

What impression do you wish you could do better? Fuck you guys for the great Alan Alda, by the way ❤️ - Johnny from Seattle

Laurie

There has been discussion for a while of ANOTHER reboot of Battlestar Galactica. Firstly, did you ever watch the Ronald D Moore reboot? What did you think? Secondly, if they were to reboot it again, how would they make it relevant?

Laurie

What old sci-fi series would you reboot, and how would you make it relevant to the modern era?

Jo Quigley

I just had a baby and now my free time is at most like 90 minutes. What is the best non-animated or horror movie (I've seen so many of them) that is 90 minutes or shorter? --Jo From Brooklyn (They/Them)

Kevin Lynch

The events of the 1969 Hammer classic Moon Zero Two take place in May 2021... What is your favorite “future” that never came to be? Kevin from Cape Cod

Anthony Simon

Listening to the Blank Check podcast on Lust/Caution and in particular the bleakness of it’s ending reminded me that this is the only film I’ve ever walked out of. Not because it was bad but because I could feel it crushing my soul. Has any film felt so spiritually or psychologically intense that you needed to immediately stop watching and get away from it? Anthony from Enfield

Lisa Ryan

Character in a movie you were rooting the most to see dead & character in a movie that hurt your heart when they bit it. (maybe you even cried) *Lisa-Yorba Linda, CA

Kyle Godown

The Critic v. Futurama. Who you got?

Pablo

Can you each of you guys create a top ten list of your favorite movie soundtrack songs, much appreciated. Pablo / Los Angeles

Dan H

Making it a personal goal of mine to watch every AFI top 100 movie. What movie(s) do you think should be in there as well as what ones would you take out to replace it with? - Dan from Wisconsin

Daniel Hood

Thinking back to the mailbag where action figures were mentioned, what was your most prized/well-remembered action figure from your childhood? -Daniel from Bowling Green, KY

James Knowles

With movie theaters starting to open up again, if you could screen any movie in any theater with any audience, what would you choose and why? - James from Peoria

Mark D Myers

We all have heard of "what are you watching?" But have you had a what are you reading moment? Mark form Portland.

Movies&

If you could each pick one old-ass actor who you'd choose as a live-in maid/butler, that'd be swell. - Christoph from Ceti Alpha V

Ned

Any plans for a WHM on Zack Snyder’s latest schlock and awe zombie movie? Sure to make a number of “Worst of 2021” lists. Ned from SC

Gabriel Palomino

My first dvd purchase was Vertical Limit. Do you guys remember your first dvd you ever bought? -Gabriel from Moreno Valley, Ca

Emily Rosen

What's the worst movie you convinced yourself you liked because everyone else in the group liked it too? -Emily in St. Louis

Justin Franklin

With Father’s Day approaching, I’d be curious to know...if each of you had to cast an actor to play your dad in a film, what actor would you choose and why? For the purposes of this question 1) you can choose any actor, living or dead, and 2) the movie can be set at any point in your dad’s life, so your dad can be portrayed as younger, his current age, or (if you want) older. - Justin from Chicago

David Allen

One of my favourite cinema experiences was seeing Chuck Jones present fresh prints of classic Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies shorts and talk about each one at the Valhalla Cinema in Melbourne in 1990. What was your most memorable screening/Q&A with a director? - David in Halifax

Bryn

What's a movie you'll defend to the end of earth due to it being one of only a few to represent your niche hobby? For me, it's "Torque" as its one of about three non biker gang motorcycle movies. Bryn, from Perth Western Australia
