Richard Gere, Gene Hackman, and Denzel Washington? In a Sidney Lumet film? How could a movie like this be all but forgotten these days?

It's one of the most savagely derided films of the entire 1990s -- a decade that had no shortage of bad films -- but Showgirls has undergone something of a metamorphosis over the past few decades, despite still being full-bore trashy campy pulp.

It seemed like a perfect pitch: Steve Martin covering similar ground to his hit Planes, Trains, and Automobiles, and pair him up with the hilarious Goldie Hawn, with whom Martin struck some gold in Housesitter a few years earlier.

Can you believe it! Can this really be happening? It has taken years but at long last Kate and Betsy have hit their 400th episode of our podcast Fuse 8 n' Kate!!! Their Quatercentenary! Now they've had a variety of special guests in the past. Jon Scieszka. Aaron Reynolds. Lucy Knisley. But today they're bringing on their sister podcast (brother podcast?) from SLJ. That's right, the hosts of The Yarn, Travis Jonker and Colby Sharp, are joining us for the biggest recording to date. We needed to find a book worthy of such a moment. What's a groundbreaking title that challenged assumptions and made everyone say at the same time, "What really IS a picture book?" Our answer seemed obvious. At Colby and Travis's suggestion, there could be only one.

It's not easy being a sci-fi horror film. Even when you pull off something cool, people will always call you an Alien retread.

In this episode of Epic Realms, host Nick sits down with bestselling author and cartoonist Aaron Reynolds, the creator of the wildly popular Effin Birds. From Canadian comedy roots to Comic Con chaos, this wide ranging conversation dives deep into how humor, spite, and creativity built one of the internet's most enduring web comics. Aaron shares the true origin story of Effin Birds, including the infamous rejection that turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to him. He opens up about growing up on CBC sketch comedy, his love of absurd humor, and how early pranks, school newspapers, and baseball fandom shaped his creative voice. Listeners will hear behind the scenes stories from Comic Cons, including shadow puppets, deli stickers, cosplay adventures, and why San Diego Comic Con is both a nightmare and a financial necessity. Aaron also talks candidly about publishing struggles, algorithm burnout, crowdfunding books, and how he keeps a daily comic fresh nearly ten years in. Episode Highlights How Effin Birds went from rejected pitch to global phenomenon Growing up on Canadian comedy like Wayne and Shuster, Kids in the Hall, and Red Green Comic Con antics, shadow puppet zones, and why being weird works The realities of making a living as a web cartoonist in the algorithm era Crowdfunding books, publisher collapses, and taking control of your work Upcoming Effin Birds projects including sticker books, affirmation decks, and an oracle deck If you love comics, comedy, creative careers, or stories about turning rejection into momentum, this episode is for you.

Yes, it's basically a feature-length Nintendo commercial. That's never been a secret. But perhaps there's some actual artistry and humanity to be found in there too?

The prolific and controversial Bran De Palma was dealing with a few flops back in the mid-'80s, so he switched gears from dark thrillers to dark comedy, and the result was the loud, raucous Wise Guys.

What happens when your nasty little sci-fi horror flick turns into a surprise hit ? You bang out a sequel as quickly as possible, without messing with any of the key components too much. For better or for worse, of course. Fortunately my guest Sean Redlitz (co-writer of a recent Shudder horror film called The Sacrifice Game) is mostly positive on this kooky sequel, which is nice considering it's standing at a robust 9% at Rotten Tomatoes.

It was bound to happen eventually; someone chose The Phantom Menace for the Overhated treatment. On this super-sized episode I am joined by actor / writer / director Graham Skipper, whom you'll know if you watch a lot of indie horror films, or if you read good books about the Godzilla films.

The summer of 1987 was an amazing time to be a movie fan. Every Friday there was something fun to watch.

I finally got my old pal Joe "Mayhem" Lynch to sit down for an episode, and of course he chose an underloved 1993 genre classic: Abel Ferrara's Body Snatchers. It may not be as well-regarded as its older siblings (1956 & 1978, to be specific) but Joe and I found a whole lot to love in this adaptation all the same.

The late '70s and early '80s were littered with all sorts of truly weird musicals, some of which have stood the test of time (like Grease), and many of which exist as relics of a truly bizarre era... like The Apple. Join me and filmmaker / podcaster / cinema junkie Julia Marchese as we discuss The Apple, a wide variety of these weird musicals, and the beauty of Stephen King adaptations. This last part comes up because Julia recently directed a short film based on King's short story, "I Know What You Need," which is super cool. Thanks for listening to Overhated!

#556 MONSTER MUSIC MONDAY    - The episode focuses on reviewing and providing feedback on music submissions from listeners.    - Submissions are accepted via the Mike Herrera Podcast Facebook group, where artists can share their YouTube links.    - Critiques various aspects of the submitted songs, including production quality, vocal performance, and song structure.    - Offers constructive criticism and praise, highlighting both strengths and areas for improvement in each submission.   Some Advice and Tactics: Avoid Excessive Auto-Tune    - Use auto-tune sparingly and only as an effect. Overuse can detract from the authenticity of the vocal performance, especially in genres like punk rock. Simplify Intros    - Keep the intro of your song short and engaging. Long intros or unnecessary samples can cause listeners to lose interest before the main part of the song begins. Focus on Production Quality    - Invest time and resources into ensuring high-quality production. Good production can significantly enhance the listening experience and make your music more appealing to a wider audience. Duh!   Monster Music Monday Submissions: 1.

LAST CHANCE MARIE - WESTBOROUGH    Punk rock band from Bellevue, Ontario.    Have been around since 02/2007 with no signs of giving up.    Would love your thoughts on our latest track.   4. THE BOY DETECTIVE - UNREALIZED GAINS    Submitted by Brandon.    No additional information provided.   5. GRUNGE PUNKS - ASHES FOR BREAD    Grunge punk from the Fall Blues EP.    Grunge Punks is my punk rock heavy music side project.    Written and recorded by Aaron Reynolds, mixed and mastered by Jason Wisdom, released by the Charyn Collective.   6.

LYCHEE CAMP - LET'S GO SURFING    Submitted by Joe Markey from Florida.    Self-produced music and video, DIY or Die.    The kids are supposed to be little versions of us going around town in Tampa and getting into some hoodrat activities, gambling, vandalism, those kinds of cute harmless things.    A cover by a band called The Drums.   8. LET ME DOWNS - BROKEN PROMISES    Second single from the new Let Me Down's album North by Southwest.    New album released January 23 on Felony Records.    From the PNW, Tacoma represent.    Song has a kinda long lead into it.   9.

How did a movie with this much talent on both sides of the camera end up losing almost $50 million for its production company? I'm not entirely sure, but there are several good theories. Join me and frequent guest Andrew Carden as he breaks down why he has a lot of affection for this underloved Frank Darabont / Jim Carrey collaboration. Thanks for listening to Overhated!

Audiences seemed mostly disinterested; critics were right on the fence; and the box office was generally unimpressive, all things considered. But who cares about all that stuff? How does Brad Bird's family-friendly sci-fi epic hold up after a particularly long eight years? My guest Rob Hunter (of the excellent Film School Rejects) offers a strong defense of this scrappily optimistic and undeniably beautiful-looking movie. (My apologies for using the word scrappily.)

I'm joined by Overhated Bond expert Brian J. Salisbury to discuss an 007 adventure that may rank among the franchise's most underappreciated chapter. Great conversation if you ask me.
