Episode 46: Eva's Xmas Deathmatch: Dudley (Moore) vs. (Bill) Goldberg
Films
Researched for this Podcast: The Ref (1994): Waiting for Guffman (1996); The Polar Express (2004); Santa's Slay (2005).
ThePoeticCritic
is back and focused to start spreading that Christmas cheer. She fondly
looks back on the holiday offerings that bring joy to the world
indiscriminately while Cool Movies Darth
focuses on the cynical side of the season with films like Dennis Leary
in "The Ref" and Bill Goldberg in "Santa's Slay". What they can agree on
is that their should be no seasonal restrictions on when we can watch
"Ernest Saves Christmas".
Aside
from the Christmas Days and Eve we end up working on (holiday pay >
politics at the kitchen table), almost all of our Christmases have been
spent together.
Neither my sister or I can recall having any bad ones. Thus, it is
interesting that we are pretty far apart on when it comes to measuring
our holiday cheer.
ThePoeticCritic
has fond memories of Rankin Bass holiday specials and HBO children's
fare like "The Snowman" featuring David Bowie.
For me, the wholesome Christmas be all end all is "Mickey's Christmas
Carol". With our mutual admiration of Don Bluth's "The Small One", should we not just cap the holiday feature length at 30 minutes?
As
for the 90's, when we were both in our teens, I think we just did not
care at the cash grabs that are Santa-exploitation, or the mutilation of Joe Pesci and Daniel Stern. She somehow skipped
out on the "Santa Clause 2" when we went to see that over the 2002. I
think that was kind of a shame since any Xmas movie is improved with
Judge Reinhold ("Gremlins" and "The Santa Clause").
The
two of us talk about the decline of Christmas movies in cinema (I
now hate that I did not realize that the blame should have been placed
on Reagan.) and how weird IP adaptations like that of "The Polar Express"
(which only lacks because Tom Waits was not the hobo, or all of Tom
Hank's characters) and the two "Grinch" related productions of the 21st
century. We also seem to not have been as overly impacted by "Elf" as
most people seem to be. At three and five in 1983, "A Christmas Story"
was our goofy tradition.
And
I think our childhood (media) kicked your childhood's (media) ass.
Perhaps we do tear into a "Hocus Pocus" again. Let me just say, the
recording on the Zoom P4 came out pretty well, so listening to it from
beginning to end did not happen. It was a crazy weekend (5 hours at the
bank, 15 hours at the retailer) for me, and if we want to get from A to Z
(and for a computer nerd, numbers), I needed to get the letter W out of the way
when it came to "Ally's Accessories Shop on Etsy's Trash Feature Review".
This
week is actually another classic with Christopher Guest's "Waiting for
Guffman". It is a improvised comedy that only lacked a Rob Reiner from
being on "This Is Spinal Tap's" level. Who cannot help but love the
mockery of flyover states from the finest thespians America has to
offer?
With
that said, community tends to associated with the holiday season, and
my big sis and I bring up movies that are set at Christmas
and/or associated with the season. These are not Christmas movies, but
you tell the masses that they should not be watching "The Wizard of Oz"
in December.

This is where I want your hate to be directed if you disapprove.
Otherwise, positive feedback would be best displayed as subscriptions to
my podcast and five-star reviews. Lets work that algorithm.
If you think you have a film or franchise that you are an expert on. Send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com.
Most franchises have at least one feature that will qualify for
NinetyForChill. The runtime just needs to be between 74 and 99 minutes.
We have four episodes to fill.
I
have been asking for weeks for assistance in composing an episode
dedicated to vampire features like "The Lost Boys" trilogy, "Near Dark",
and the "Underworld" movies. Here is to hoping that this bunch of
critiques will stir up some inspiration in my audience to step up and
hold off on the garlic. If this is a topic you up for discussing, feel free to send an email to russthebus07@gmail.com. All I need is a half hour on Zoom to get this done.
I
hope I am impressing or at the very least amusing you with this podcast
and I am open to any and all criticism. My biggest want is more guests
and more suggestions on what to chat about (@catbusruss, russthebus07@gmail.com@coolmoviesdarth). If we can get 3 hours out of "Little Nicky", the possibilities are endless. Thanks for visiting.
After
WrestleMania Backlash, I will tell you that we need to take zombie pro
wrestling back. My suggestion is that we finally get my low-budget
zombie movie, "Main Event of the Dead" off the ground. The script lacks a
lumberjack match, so you know it has got to be better than the "Army of
the Dead" advertisement. Ask for a treatment or give me suggestions on
how to get it to a crowd-sourcing stage with an email to russthebus07@gmail.com.
