The Flop House Episode Forty-Nine is ONLINE

Does the failure of Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li mean we'll never get that long-awaited Blanka biopic? We fail to answer these and other questions. Meanwhile, Stuart discusses how thugs benefit from Outlook and multi-tasking, Elliott explains how this movie would be right at home in classic Hollywood, and Dan reveals he knows far too much about lesbian vampires.

0:00 - 0:37 - Introduction and theme
0:38 - 39:10- We dive right in and discuss a movie based on Chun-Li - a video game character that was only popular because preteen boys are too scared to talk to real girls.
39:11 - 40:10 - Final judgments
40:11 - 41:33 - A CONTEST WINNER ANNOUNCED, for the contest everyone (even the hosts) forgot was happening.
41:34 - 47:47 - The sad bastards recommend.
47:48 - 50:17 - Plugs, goodbyes, theme and outtakes.
50:18 - 51:17 - Station identification.

The Flop House Episode Forty-Eight is ONLINE

Flop House's annual SHOCKTOBER celebration concludes with the most obscure movie we've ever tackled (and that includes Memory)--a ecologically-minded Saw knockoff called... The Chaos Experiment. Meanwhile Dan sets himself up for one-upmanship failure, Elliott explains why some topless scenes are created less equal than others, and Stuart struggles with technologically-induced laryngitis.

0:00 - 0:56 - Introduction, APOLOGY, and theme
0:57 - 4:00 - The return of Dan's least favorite reoccurring segment.
4:01 - 41:41- Dan, Stu, and Elliott make vicious fun of a movie you've never heard of, giving the lie to their claim that they're too nice to kick a film when it's down.
41:42 - 44:53- Final judgments
44:54 - 51:54 - Our second and final SHOCKTOBER sad bastards recommend of 2009.
51:55 - 55:00 - Plugs, goodbyes, theme and outtakes.

Terry Jones

This weekend I got to attend a small Q&A / writing seminar with Monty Python member Terry Jones. Suffice it to say that, as is almost certainly the case for anyone who does comedy, Monty Python means more to me than I can express.

Afterward, some members of my sketch group Mr. Whitpants (Matt Koff and Roy Koshy), a friend-of-the-group (Mike Yoder), and I got a picture with the man himself:














Hmmn. That's nice, but it looks a little cluttered with all those people in there. Let's see if I can...


















Well, that's better, but there still seems to be something... off about it. Maybe I can fix it if I just...













HEY, EVERYBODY! LOOK AT ME AND MY BEST FRIEND, MONTY PYTHON'S TERRY JONES!

It's Halloween, Mr. Whitepants!
