Did you guys and How Did This Get Made call each other and co-ordinate when to do this episode? 😉 If Red Letter Media covers this on this week, I’ll know it’s a conspiracy. I mean, a really weird, pointless conspiracy, but still …
It was an odd (life of timothy green) coincidence that we covered the same ground this week. Goes to show that there’s a limited pool of crazy new movies out there.
woo! cheers for the link.
When the plot was being summarized I immediately thought of ‘Little Otik’ by Svankmajer. A better version of this story for sure.

Btw: Did Anyone suggest Mr. Stitch:Mr. Stitch for the write in movie?

Just to add to the cannon of magical being movies that end with the being becoming a US citizen “the cat from outer space”, where, when he raises his right paw to swear the oath, lifts the judge into the air telekinetically. So, yeah, that happened.
