    Do you remember Ghostbusters?
  2. Half in the Bag: Derivative Holiday Horrors

    Fri, 29 Dec 2023 16:01:01 -0000

    The holiday season may be sort of over (except for News Years) but the derivative holiday-related shit films keep pooping out of our TVs. Hi, I'm Porky Fartbag and I'm here today to tell you about Mike and Jay (aka redlettermedia) they do a show called Half in the Bag where they talk about movies. On this episode they watched three recent holiday films: It's a Wonderful Knife, There's Something in the Barn, and Thanksgiving. It would have been more appropriate if there was a News Years Eves film in there too, but such as it goes. While a murderous Santa or horror Christmas film in the 1980's would have caused a stir, today it's par for the course. What, with all the filthy p*rn, shameful home renovation shows , trash music, angry political programing, and TLC fatso shows; a killer Santa Claus seems quaint. However, people keep making these movies hoping to shock or catch a view. They cost very little and can squeeze out a few bucks via the streaming services and their satanic algorithms. Lost is art. Art is no more. It's metrics. It's actuary tables. It's core demographics. It’s titles needed for the streaming service content related algorithm. In fact, we kind of suspect that a computer made these movies for us. Thankfully though, 2023 might be the last year of movies, as I predict sometime in 2024 someone, somewhere will launch or detonate a nuclear weapon. This incident will cause a domino effect on the planet earth. No, not an all-out global thermonuclear war, but certainly chaos. Rebellions, mass migration, power grid failures, supply chain collapse, violent protests, starvation, mass murder and so on. Cities will burn. The planet will go dark and we will all long for a simpler time when we could watch a killer Santa Claus movie and share a laugh around the fireplace.

  6. Half in the Bag: The Kyle Gallner Triple Feature Spectacular!

    Tue, 29 Aug 2023 15:27:29 -0000

    Mike and Jay go down one of the most unexpected rabbit holes of all time! It’s the Kyle Gallner Triple Feature Spectacular! Brought to you by Vudu™ and Loot Crate™ and Quaker Oats™! Mike loves Vudu. It’s an interface his rotting, elderly, dementia-ridden brain can comprehend. It’s where he watches his movies and loves to click on the little pictures and see what other movies people have been in. This time, Mike saw that Jay’s old friend Kyle Gallner has been in 3 movies in the past 6 months or so. Mike watched the three most recent films and got a little something out of each one. He wanted to share them with Jay. And then with you, the internet audience. Are these movies destined to be classics decades from now? Probably not. They are lower budgeted quality independent films that make a heartful attempt at something new. Plus they do not have the words Clown, Shark, or Exorcist in the title. Did billions of people go to see them like the Barbie movie? Or Oppenhomie? Nope. But you can watch them on streaming for a low, low price and get a little bit of enjoyment in your sad lives for a tight 90! Or put them on a “to watch” movie list when the inevitable fallout drought of entertainment arrives as a result of the strike. Mike and Jay give these three films a fair shake, enjoying them all for the most part. Plus as an added bonus, both Mike and Jay tell stories from their brief but terrible experience on movie sets. Mike also pitches one of his worst movie ideas yet! Everyone can have a laugh at the expense of others! So open a cold frosty beverage of your choice. Sit back and relax. And prepare to watch two brain dead bumpkins from the mid-west struggle to form sentences out of their mouths filled with cheese curds, beer, and wallpaper paste. It’s the Kyle Gallner Triple Feature Spectacular!!!!!!!
  7. Half in the Bag: Oppenheimer and The Hollywood Implosion

    Mon, 24 Jul 2023 00:18:11 -0000

    Happy Barbenheimer everyone! Watch as these two elderly losers stall for half the video before finally discussing what some are calling the best movie of the year: Oppenheimer! In addition to that, Mike and Jay discuss the ongoing writer and actor strikes as well as it's consequences on movies, theaters, streamers, audiences, and most importantly what effect it will have on David Zaslav. Won't someone please think of poor David Zaslav?!
  8. Half in the Bag: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny

    Mon, 03 Jul 2023 00:29:34 -0000

    Indiana...let it go.

    We had a lot of dumb technical issues when filming this episode. One of our stupid mics stopped working 2 minutes into our discussion but we didn't discover that until after talking about the stupid Indiana Jones movie for 45 minutes so then we had to start the stupid discussion all over again. And for some reason on the second time we shot it, Rich Evans' microphone made him sound extra echo-y because Rich Evans is a sound anomaly. But you can still understand everything we say as we painstakingly go through this boring movie. So just relax and have fun, everybody. Relax and have fun!!! And Happy Birthday, Grimace!
  9. Half in the Bag: Fool's Paradise and The Corporate Product Biopic Trend

    Fri, 16 Jun 2023 12:49:47 -0000

    Charlie Day from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia wrote, directed, and starred in a movie that just came out that you've never heard about! Is this gigantic flop as bad as it's Rotten Tomatoes score would suggest? Also WHEN ARE WE GOING TO GET THE RUBIK'S CUBE MOVIE???
  10. Half in the Bag: Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3

    Mon, 08 May 2023 21:21:35 -0000

    The summer movie season is a go! It's time for action! Time for adventure! Time for incorrect aspect ratio projections of a movie that takes up only two thirds of your giant movie theater screen of which you came to see said movie on. It's time to head back to the moopies and check out the final Marvel movie, Guardians of the Galaxy 3!
  11. Half in the Bag: Evil Dead Rise

    Sun, 30 Apr 2023 15:20:00 -0000

    An Irish guy shot the latest installment of an American franchise in New Zealand. It's Evil Dead Rise! The first Evil Dead movie in a decade. Is the new film worth traveling to a disgusting movie theater to see??? Only the idiots that bring their crying infants to a disgustingly violent R-rated movie know for sure!
  12. Half in the Bag: Cocaine Bear, Knock at the Cabin, and The Whale

    Mon, 20 Mar 2023 14:15:07 -0000

    Cocaine Bear! It's that movie that everyone was joking about for about a week and then completely forgot. Jay and Mike talk about it. They also talk about Knock at the Cabin, the latest film from N. Night Shyamalan. It's about a cabin that has a knock at the cabin. They also talk about The Whale, starring Cocaine Bear!
  13. Half in the Bag: Snow Falls (2023)

    Sun, 12 Feb 2023 18:58:59 -0000

    Mike and Jay narrow down some of the worst rated films of 2023 and pick one to watch. It's called Snow Falls and its something someone made that takes place in a large cabin house. Digital snowflakes fall on snowflakes as they gets cold in the film and can't handle basic survival skills or something and they just get too cold because of the film's premise. Someone made a movie and wanted you to watch this movie cause the trailer makes the movie look like it could be fun. It kind of looks like a movie you've seen before. Young people in a cabin and things happen but in this film nothing really happen. It gets cold and they can't leave the cabin, but they really can. I guess the roads are out but no one ever show me that. Why not drive away from cold house? Why not? No one liked this film, but Mike and Jay may talk about it for longer than anyone on Earth. Why did they? Why review this when them could review newer better or more populated films? When? Why nots go to the movie theater and watch newer movies? Corovid-19 isn't no longer a danger to them? Whys they afraid of movies? Popcorn pigs? Nacho slurpers? Loud stinkers? Yes. People in movie theater smell of B.O. Jay leave theater to go home and cry. Mike stay in theater and cry there. Loud popcorn piggies wipe boogers on their Captain America t-shirts. wipe off popcorn grease on their sicko blue jeans. if they play Snow Falls in moopie theater then people would leave after they ate their nachos and pizza and popcorn and chicken wings and slurped their 900 oz sodas and threw their trash and chicken bones all over the floor for others to clean.
