So I call this one episode 53 right at the beginning, which is incorrect (obviously), and the call kind of go off the rails with a lot of technical difficulties. We talked about not even putting this one up, but there’s one good joke in it that’s worth the other painful time listening. Join Peter, Russ, Alex and myself as we talk about The Wind Rises, Robocop, The Monuments Men and The Lego Movie. Recorded on February 26th 2014.

I’m so happy to not be writing a romantic comedy. So let’s get this think started. Title comes from Tigs, the Yoko to my Paul.
The Candy Store at the End of the Road
A 50s-ish man sits in a chair in a dark living room, as only a bit of the morning light is coming in through the thick shades. He has a drink in his hand and his gun in the other. He looks at them both as the phone rings. He then flips his attention from drink to phone to gun. He puts them down and answers the phone. He says he’ll be right there. He walks to the door and puts on a jacket and as he turns to leave we see the back of it says Sheriff.
I finally did it! To get an idea for a title, I did what Tigs and I usually do to come up with website or song title ideas, I opened iTunes and clicked shuffle all, random, and then combined the titles of the next two tracks. First track I got was Black Flag’s “Can’t Decide,” and the second was, I shit you not, “Say Yes” by Elliott Smith. So from Evelyn’s 13,000 songs on this computer, I say that’s pretty weird. So I decided to write a weird movie. Here it is. Not sure if you’ll have fun reading it, but I had a fucking blast writing it the last hour.
Can’t Decide, Say Yes
So I completely forgot the title the Goggins’ gave at Pig Pile last night. I asked him and he wasn’t even sure of the actual wording so we settled on this. Here we go!
Who Let You Touch Pamela Anderson?
Movie begins with our main character, Brad, sitting in an interrogation room. He’s handcuffed to a desk looking scared. A detective enters the room sits down on the other side of the table. He flips through a file and sips his coffee. Brad looks uncomfortable in the silence. The detective closes the files and looks up and asks “Who let you touch Pamela Anderson?”
Today is Valentine’s Day. In celebration I’m going to see the Lego Movie with Alex and Tigs. I’ve already seen it. This is my day. Here is my final love story film in celebration of February. title from everyone’s Valentine, Tigs.
Be Mine, Frankenstein
The movie starts with the famous scene from all Frankenstein movies. It’s black and white and a man is working in his lab hoisting a gurney up to the sky light. Lighting strikes and he lowers it. The body on the table moves. He screams it’s alive. The camera pulls back and we see that this is on a TV and sitting on the couch is a teenage kid with a party hat. His parents sit on either side of him. His mother is crying. He says “Do we really have to watch this every year on my birthday?”
Title from Tigs. Only one more week until Valentine’s Day and the end of this sappy crap. This is going to be a quick one. I fear I may not make it to 2 years.
College Radio
I completely forgot that today was Friday again. I’m watching the episode of The Simpsons where Burns loses all his money and starts recycling with Lisa. Burns said this at one point.

For the first time ever I present to you a movie written in a car! On the way to Evelyn’s for the weekend, Brian suggested this title and Ashley said it needed to be spelt with an A, and my response was “Way ahead of you.”
Dear Crossing
Last night was Pig Pile 50! What a glorious occasion. I believe the local papers said FUN NIGHT HAD BY ALL. Title comes from Adam and I’m having a hard time coming up with an idea. It’s week 90, Only 12 more until 2 years!
Man Before Time
A man is standing at an almost full chalkboard. He gazes at it pondering the calculations with chalk all over his jacket. A woman enters. She apologizes for intruded and they talk a bit. He’s awkward and shy while she is more forward. Laura tells Samuel all about her writing/philosophy major and questions him about his theoretical physics work. He tells her about his theories on time travel. She laughs at first but sees the passion in his eyes. She warns him to be careful and not mess up history, about mistakenly eliminating species or even creating religions.
