In honor of our Masters of the Universe streaming show tonight, Elliott takes us on a very silly tour through some of his favorite movie toy tie-ins.

The always affable and delightful Charles Wayne “Chuck” Bryant of the blockbuster-huge Stuff You Should Know podcast joins us to talk about the very odd Bliss, from Amazon Studios, a “what if The Matrix was not-so-secretly Requiem for a Dream” freakout, starring Owen Wilson and Salma Hayek in a series of silly hats.

Stu returns to his smash hit mini format, to discuss the hit show about teens and drugs that everyone’s talking about.

We’ve got a new best friend, and it’s Alison Rosen! She drops by to discuss the Oscar-nominated Being the Ricardos, a movie that expresses Aaron Sorkin’s deep and not at all bizarre understanding of how TV comedy works, and how it’s the most solemn, earth-shaking thing that could ever exist, filled with people staring very seriously at jokes until their genius strikes them and they spew an impeccably-worded monologue about someone slipping on bananas, or whatever.

bonus episode — our first full-length movie commentary! And we’re going to let YOU pick which of our previously-discussed Flop House faves we’re recording a commentary for!

We’re joined by bestselling children’s book author and illustrator Adam Rex, to discuss the misbegotten Dungeons & Dragons movie from 2000. What does he know about D&D, oh, we dunno… just that he was an illustrator for a little book called… THE MONSTER MANUAL (3rd edition)? Ever heard of it? (…plus a ton of other D&D manuals, Magic the Gathering cards, and other role playing and fantasy games). Join us as we point our magic missles at this magic misfire.

We’re joined by Erik Marcisak, the man who holds a hallowed place in Flop House history, as the man who introduced Dan and Elliott to one another. We reminisce with Erik about the old days, doing shows in his tiny comedy theater; then we segue into a discussion of Nukie, one of the bad movies that bonded him with Elliott; and wrap up with Erik subtly hijacking the show to interview us for a little bit.

Here’s a new one — two of the credited writers of Accidental Love (aka “Nailed,” the movie that went through so many production issues that director David O. Russell asked for his name to be removed) actually PITCHED their own movie to us to cover. That’s right, Elliott’s colleagues, Matt Silverstein and Dave Jeser, join us to discuss this legendarily troubled film, and they seem just as baffled as anyone about it!
