Movie Party 1999

Come for Sharon telling Mercury what Watergate was, stay for all the giggles. Also, sorry for the slight background noises. Mercury refuses to admit that it's too noisy to record in bed, and Sharon lives in LA, where the 4th of July fireworks start on June 11th.

Did you know that Oliver Platt is 6 foot f-ing 4? Like woah. The x-files episode Sharon references is called "Quagmire" and is in Season 3. A few corrections, Rainn Wilson plays Doctor Demento, not Micheal Shannon. Edward Gorey is American. Also, farts.

This week Sharon and Merc surprisingly don't talk about plants; but they do talk about horror films, Clea Duvall, and of course, 1999's adaptation of My Fair Lady, She's All That.

In this week's episode Merc and Sharon kick off Clea Duvall month, talk about the importance of Camp as a tool, and go on more tangents that you can shake a pom-pom at.

Thomas Crown Affair- Vibes, ManSorry we say plump so much, but not sorry we talk about Timothy Olipant. Again. No, he's not in this film. There are spoilers for "Ghostbusters, Afterlife" if that is a thing you are worried about. And for those at home who do not want to google it, the 15th anniversary of "Hot Fuzz" is March 14th. It came out in 2007. See you soon for Clea Duvall month!

This week Merc and Sharon dive into the sexy capers of 1999 with Entrapment.  Digressions include Cats (Please enjoy Merc's strange russian accent she talks to her cat with) Caper films that ARE NOT Entrapment (you're welcome) LA house prices And The Book of Boba Fett spoilers. Sorry. Corrections cornerIt's Rebecca Ferguson, not Rachel Ferguson Charles Grodin was in the Great Muppet Caper, not Charles Nelson RileyJosh Brolin not James Brolin was in Dune (2021) And one DEFECTS from something, not deflects. *sigh**Sorry about the slight background noise, we think it was a moving mic situation, and will be more careful next time

Digressions include, turkey poop and book talk. As promised, here is William Malone's filmography. Scared to Death (1980) Creature (1985) Freddy's Nightmares- "Lucky Stiff" (1988) Tales From the Crypt- "Only Skin Deep" (1994)W.E.I.R.D World (1995 TV film) House on Haunted Hill (1999) FeardotCom (2002)Masters of Horror- Fair-Haired Child (2006)Parasomnia (2008)

Nominated for FIVE razzie awards, this week, Sharon and Mercury talk  about the '99 remake of the Shirley Jackson classic, "The Haunting".  WOW, y'all.

God! The Devil! Math! Mercury's teenage existential crisis..... and plants. Happy New Year!

This time, Sharon and Mercury talk about one of their favorite Holiday films, Doug Liman's (should be) cult classic, GO! Please enjoy our strong, strong thirst for Timothy Olyphant and Merc's little "Castle" interlude. Side Notes and corrects Sometimes the job title Music Supervisor just leaves your brain. We appreciate you all, Julianne Kelley in particularMerc keeps calling Ronna's character Rona.... damn this plagueThe writer of the Bourne Identity is Robert Ludlum And at one point, we accidently refer to sex workers as prostitutes. It was a slip up. We here at Movie Party 1999 love and support our sex worker friends, and will indever not to use outdated terminology.   happy holidays!

The learning curve continues...some mics are too loud and there's still no music. This week Sharon and Mercury talk about cult classic Jawbreaker. Digressions include queso, loud bars, and "Halloween."
