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!
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.
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.)
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?)
Elliott completes a loose trilogy of minisodes — one per Peach — all about the changing of the year. His take? What New Year’s resolution would you make on behalf of various franchises?
