The Moment, with Hallie Haglund
Charli XCX is a huge pop star, seems cool, and is a genuine film lover — but when she decided to make her own movie, were the results any good? That’s what we were wondering about THE MOMENT, and we invited star of the show (and bigger Charli XCX-pert than any of us) Hallie Haglund back to the show to help us decide.

The Peach Pit, with Hallie!
Stuart brings back the world’s most popular Flop House after-show, hosted by one of the hosts of The Flop House, and this time Hallie’s here (her presence makes more sense when you realize that we taped next week’s full episode with her first, but this one was the first to release). This time, Stu asks The Flop House gang about their experiences with live shows, with some diversions into Dan, Elliott, and Hallie’s tenure as writers for The Daily Show!

Summer-y Judgments
Elliott guides us through an overview of movies with “summer” in the title, and asks us to evaluate them based on our own summertime experiences.

The Bride! with Kenice Mobley
Oftentimes on The Flop House we wind up watching Hollywood movies that are just kind of dull or mediocre or unimaginative. The Bride!… is not one of those. For all its flaws, it’s at least a bona fide personal vision that also happens to be a fiasco. And you know what? That’s kind of heartwarming. We’re joined by Kenice Mobley to dissect (ha) the many parts that make up The Bride!

Tops and Flops
Stuart takes us on a tour of several significant movie directors, asking Dan and Elliott to guess which of their works are top rated on IMDb and which ones take the bottom slot, and discussing whether the rankings are justified.

Wuthering Heights
Emerald Fennell took one of the classic works of literature most beloved by horny youth and said, “But what if I took out the subtlety?” It actually made quite a lot of money at the box office, but did it work for the Flop House? Guess you’ll have to listen to find out. (See, Emerald? That’s how you TEASE.)
Episode #484
The Mandalorian and Grogu, with Will Hines
It’s a rare “Flop House in the Aisles,” as we took to the theater to see the tepidly-received (though still wildly successful) latest Star Wars thing, THE MANDALORIAN AND GROGU. It’s got a li’l green guy in it! How bad could it be? And for a very special episode, we needed a special guest — the talented actor and improvisor Will Hines, returning to the show after a seventeen year absence! See you in another 17 Will! (JK, why would we do that?)
