Dan joins in the missed movie fun with his report on “Geteven” (yes, all one word) AKA “Road to Revenge,” a passion project that’s more passion than project.

How can we follow up heavy-hitting guests like Griffin Newman and Chris Weitz, you may ask? Uh, well how about with JAMELLE BOUIE, New York Times columnist and guy you’ve definitely seen saying smart things on the news. Why does he like us? Who knows! But he stopped by to discuss Sonic the Hedgehog, about some sort of hedgehog who has definitely never been pregnant on the internet. Meanwhile, Jamelle gives us his history with SEGA, Stuart uses literary terms correctly, Dan only has old man references, and Elliott adds a few physics goofs to Sonic’s IMDB page.

Stuart tries for extra credit (no one tell him that Flop House extra credit isn’t a thing), by checking out the puppy-kidnapping family comedy Rusty: A Dog’s Tale and reporting back to the guys.

Guys, we’re so excited for our guest this episode. He’s a big-time Hollywood gent who’s worn many hats — and to name just a few: he wrote and directed About a Boy. As an actor, he co-starred as “Chuck” in Chuck and Buck. He was one of the producers of The Farewell. The man co-wrote a Star War (Rogue One), for Pete’s sake! And, as we never get tired of reminding him, he directed Twilight: New Moon. But up until now, he’s been missing one line on his resume — Flop House guest. I’m sure now he weeps, for he has no worlds left to conquer. Chris Weitz is on this episode! And we’re sorry we made him talk about Rambo: Last Blood! Meanwhile the rest of us do some shit. We won’t waste your time. Just listen.

Griffin Newman came back (for reals, not one of these “we actually recorded it at the same time”) to chat for a bit about Watto, Star Wars in general, his career, and, of course, Tom Selleck.

First off, how are you guys? Everyone doing okay? We hope so. Take care of yourselves. Secondly, my lord were we excited to have Griffin Newman, of many, many things, including the Blank Check podcast and Amazon’s The Tick, but MOST IMPORTANTLY, the world’s #1 Vin Diesel fan, join the show to discuss Vin’s latest vinsanity, Bloodshot. Meanwhile Elliott takes us on a tour through the 4th most popular comics publisher of the 90’s, Griffin offers a unified Diesel theory, and Stu and Dan do some bullshit, we’re sure, but, honestly, that’s really the most important stuff, because those two lovable scamps can talk up a storm!

Elliott gives us a preview of his son Sammy’s novel, and then things take a turn.

In our first episode recorded after shit got real, we take a change of pace, and discuss your aunt’s favorite movie, Book Club. Can a cast of wonderful old pros elevate the world’s most banal script? Meanwhile, Elliott presents his Golden Girls hypothesis, Dan’s a huge crybaby, and Stu bravely soldiers on, through his COVID-19.
