#219: Animal Crackers (1930)

Oldie But A Goodie ·

2023/03/19

As we enter a brand new decade of cinema, it's time to check out some of the funniest, talkiest and most influential comedians of the time: The Marx Brothers! Based on their stageplay from the late '20s, we're giving Animal Crackers a watch to see how it holds up. In it, Groucho, Harpo, Chico, and Zeppo Marx joke their way around a loose plot about a missing painting and deliver many hilarious lines, many silly sketches, and many problematic moments that haven't aged well but it's the 30s and what

Join us as we head under the water with Count Dakkar (not Captain Nemo) and go on an adventure filled with sea-people, giant monsters, and... revolutions? Wait, this isn't based off the Jules Verne novel The Mysterious Island? It's more of a prequel to Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Seas? And the first half is incredibly boring? Oh well, at least this silent movie has 5 minutes of actual recorded talking in it!Join the Bad Porridge Club on Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month

#216: Metropolis (1927) (with Chloe Towan)

Oldie But A Goodie ·

2023/02/26

This is the big one. Some might say the biggest film of the '20s. Not only is it the silent movie that's known for revolutionising science-fiction cinema... Not only is it a very important German expressionist film from Fritz Lang... Not only is it really good... But it's also the longest film we've done on the show so far this year! We're joined by Chloe Towan (Innes Lloyd's Time Lord / You, Fred and the Road Ahead) on this in-depth review to discuss and analyze exactly what this film is trying to

We've covered films by Harold Lloyd and Charlie Chaplin so far this year, but on this episode, we finally check out another comedy icon from the silent era... It's Buster Keaton! As big Sherlock Holmes fans, as soon as we saw that Sherlock Jr. came out in 1924, we knew we had to give it a watch. We're joined by frequent guest Rob Lloyd to talk about all the stunts, all the gags, and all the incredible in-camera tricks on display in this film.See 'Shakespeare Aliens' in Adelaide Fringe!

2023/01/15

For the second episode of our new series, we're heading to 1921 to review Charlie Chaplin's big feature debut... The Kid. He plays his classic character The Tramp and adopts a child to help with his various antics. It's a film with a lot of heart, a lot of laughs, and that whole problematic can of worms that tends to come with discussing Chaplin movies.Join the Bad Porridge Club on Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram:

2022/12/25

No new episode this week, so instead we're releasing something from our Patreon archives! It's the first episode of our epic The Cage-A-Rama series, which was six episodes covering wild Nic Cage performances! To kick it off, we warmed up with a pre-MCU Marvel movie by Sony. It's about Ghost Rider, that guy who has a flaming skull and a cool bike. He has to work for the devil and battle vampire rejects from the Underworld series, all while fighting Sony execs to try and make his movie good. Oh yeah,

It's our final episode of the year! And to celebrate, we're reviewing something super nostalgic... The animated feature film Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius! Jimmy is a smart kid with a big head. He's got a bunch of friends with weird cartoon voices. When all their parents are kidnapped by Patrick Stewart voicing an alien, they all have to team up to save them!

Oldie But A Goodie ·

2022/12/11

For the second last episode of the year, and the second last movie we'll review for 2001, we've gone for yet another comedy. It's the high-school rom-com parody Not Another Teen Movie, a film so unfunny that our guest Jack McGorlick (Paul Noodle) may never come back on the show again. But Chris Evans is in it, so that's a plus I guess.Join the Bad Porridge Club on Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram:

#204: Texas Rangers

Oldie But A Goodie ·

2022/11/27

Here on the show, we've never seemed to have good luck with westerns. We always happen to review the ones people don't like, the ones with nothing new to do or say, and the ones the studio and creatives had no faith in. We aren't changing that this week! Texas Rangers is a movie that took forever to make, was heavily edited for it's theatrical release, and is so far removed from the original vision that no one really cared about it. But we'll still review it! Why? That's actually a really good

Ho ho ho! Merry November! Do you remember a Christmas movie from 1989 called Prancer? Sam Elliot is in it, and it's written by the guy who wrote Jumanji? Well, on this jolly episode of the podcast, we're checking out the direct-to-video sequel that came out in 2001! It's full of questionable plot points, cow-based action sequences, horrifying forests, and too many uses of the Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy.Join the Bad Porridge Club on Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month

Did you know there is a movie where Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg worked at a car wash? Did you know that there is also a movie where Eminem keeps threatening the boss of that car wash? Did you know that Shaq and Ludacris and Xzibit and even Pauly Shore are in this movie? Did you know that it's written and directed by DJ Pooh, who also wrote GTA: San Andreas? Well, we knew that, because we've just reviewed the movie! It's 2001's The Wash, and we think it's actually kinda good!Join the Bad Porridge Club on
