The Flop House is taking a break for a week or two to work off our eggnog hangover. In the meanwhile, keep the spirit of shitty movies alive by going out and seeing Four Christmases or something. And keep the true holiday spirit alive by watching these awesome outtakes from Emmet Otter's Jug-Band Christmas (thanks, Betsy, for the link). Is there anything that brings more holiday cheer than Frank Oz improvising as a mother otter? If there is, I HAVE YET TO FIND IT.
Have a safe and wonderful holiday, guys. We'll be back with more bad movies in the new year.

How can a movie centered around a lisping, fright-wigged Dustin Hoffman possibly go wrong? Anything's possible in Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium! Meanwhile, Dan busts out another one of his 101 voices, Stuart uncovers the lost, obscene Mark Knopfler album, and Elliott reveals the rampant incompetence of medical droids.
0:00 - 0:34 - Introduction and theme. 0:35 - 5:04 - We spend the first five minutes talking about a movie about toys that WASN'T the one we watched, released more than a decade ago. 5:05 - 11:14 - We make a brief feint at discussing Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, but quickly get sidetracked by talk of Willy Wonka and old-time character actors. 11:15 - 35:41 - We finally manage to focus on the topic at hand, the horrifying tale of a sentient toy store and its insane inhabitants. What's that? It's a kids' film? ...You sure? 35:42 - 40:05 - Final judgments. 40:06 - 44:10 - Copyright infringement, listener mail, and discussion of nude Lea Thompson. 44:11 - 46:34 - The MOST IMPORTANT SEGMENT EVER. 46:35 - 54:38 - Thesadbastardsrecommend. 54:39 - 58:30 - Goodbyes, outtakes, and theme.
