Does This Still Work?

Is life a malfunction? According to science we exist due to random mutations and planetary conditions developed over billions of years. Which could be read as an accident but this movie says otherwise so by all means let's listen to it. Also, enjoy the brownface.

Take a touch of Hackers, add a little Weekend at Bernie's and throw in some Footloose and what have you got? A very 1980s movie, that's what. But does it still work?

When did you fall in love with hip hop? How about romcoms? When did you fall in love with those? If the answer is never to both then this may not be your movie. But what do the guys think?

It's our 200th episode! To celebrate we hopped into a Tardis and went all the way back to 1949. Why? Because that's where you'll find Joe's favorite movie of all time, The Third Man. Yes, the show's only black host loves a movie set in post World War 2 Vienna that stars absolutely no POC. Yikes. Anyway, enjoy.

You better watch out. You better not cry. You better not pout. I'm telling you why. Santa Claus is coming to town. And he's Tim Allen. You know,what? Never mind. Go ahead and cry. That's actually the correct reaction you should have to that news.

According to Wikipedia this film is lauded by attorneys for its accurate depiction of criminal procedure and trial strategy to which one might say, Uhhh, really? Okay, I guess." But that aside, our hosts only care if it still works.

This movie was released on November 1,1967. 10 months later Joe was born. Coincidence? Probably. But Joe never asked his parents if they were watching this flick when they were banging and now they're both gone so we'll never know the truth.. Anyway, the film is a classic. But does it still work?

You know it's a Robin Williams movie. You know LL Cool J plays his cousin. You know the recently deceased Michael Gambon is the bad guy. Hell, you even know it's set in a toy factory. What you won't know is who this film was made for. Can George and Joe help solve that mystery? (Spoiler: ABSOLUTELY NOT)

What happens when you're a guest at a beach house and you find your host's dead body? You pretend he's still alive so you can keep the party going, of course. You know, like any normal person would.
