We broke down and inserted another coin to enable two player mode. That’s right, we went and dual reviewed the Double Dungeons Dragon movie. Or maybe we just went and saw The Super Mario Bros Movie[2023]. In spite of all the internet whinging that Chris Prat was voicing Mario which was surely a sign of how the west has fallen and millions must die.

Hey there everyone, have you ever just felt so good? Like really so good? Like that the sun could go nova and wipe all life off the face of the earth and leave only the smolderiest of craters where only politicians and cans of RC cola survive and you just feel great anyway? It may or may not be because we found an errant package of cocaine recovered from a southern state after making a pilgrimage to visit the inspiration of our movie.

Popcorn Pulse 194: Toxic Faith

Captain, I’m getting readings of life from the planet below. Looks like it’s some sort of movie based society. They appear to consume a type of grass seed which has been heated until the moisture inside escapes. This is then given a fine coating of a churned animal fat, derived from their local cattle. It also appears as though this is consumed in ritual fashion while watching movie of any quality.

You know what makes a movie work? Like really, really work? Is it well directed acting? A strong sense of shot composition or perhaps lighting? No, you film school snob. What makes a movie good is having a long dead pan voice over which lays out the setup and premise. Lucky for use there’s a great movie in Red Planet[2000].

Before the made for streaming movies there were made for TV movies. Those still exist if you count Hallmark and other channels. Most are crap but every once in a while someone would put a nice modest budget together and see what happens. Which is how we got The Park Is Mine(1985) from HBO.

Hey, I can hear the music that you’re listening to down there. Knock three times on the ceiling if you want a review. Was that a thump or a shout? Either way, we’re interpreting that as a sign to go forward with a couple of movie reviews. We kick off with a movie from the same people that can’t stop making the same phone over and over, The Greatest Beer Run Ever[2022].

Popcorn Pulse 189: Strange Menu

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Hey kids, do you like Cyperpunk? You like leather coats and techno-futuristic dystopias? How about nifty gadgets rendered in kludgy props that are clearly repurposed electronics? We’ve got a movie for you then. No, it’s not Blade Runner. Either or. Instead we have Strange Days(1995).

It’s set in the far off future of 1999 at the turn of the millennium. Imagine, living long enough to see a whole new millennium. Our protagonists is Ralph Fiennes. Lord Red Dragonmort deals in memories. Somehow he gets mixed up in a conspiracy where a local activist has been killed and the guilty cops were witnessed by someone recording their memories. Also, he’s very sad about his ex who used to fuck him but now screws Tome Sizemore’s wig.
