FEED ME, SEYMOUR!! Little Shop of Horrors Full Movie Reaction Watch Along:   / thereelrejects   Save & Invest In Your Future Today, visit: https://www.acorns.com/rejects Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ It's MUSICAL MONDAY & with Halloween coming, Aaron, Andrew, & John are BACK to give their Little Shop of Horrors Reaction, Recap, Commentary, Breakdown, & Spoiler Review! From director Frank Oz (The Muppets Take Manhattan, Dirty Rotten Scoundrels), Little Shop of Horrors (1986) is a cult classic horror / comedy / musical blending dark humor, catchy songs, and unforgettable practical effects. Based on the off-Broadway stage musical (itself adapted from Roger Corman's 1960 film), the movie follows the nerdy florist Seymour Krelborn (Rick Moranis – Ghostbusters, Honey I Shrunk the Kids) who discovers a mysterious man-eating plant he names Audrey II. As the plant grows, so does Seymour's fame and fortune — but Audrey II's insatiable hunger for human flesh spirals into chaos. Ellen Greene (Pushing Daisies, Leon: The Professional) shines as Audrey, Seymour's love interest, while Steve Martin (The Jerk, Planes, Trains & Automobiles) delivers an iconic performance as sadistic dentist Orin Scrivello. The film also features memorable appearances from Vincent Gardenia (Moonstruck, Bang the Drum Slowly) as Mr. Mushnik, James Belushi (Saturday Night Live, Red Heat), and Bill Murray (Groundhog Day, Ghostbusters) in one of the film's most famous comedic cameos. Highlights include the show-stopping musical numbers “Suddenly, Seymour” and “Dentist!,” Audrey II's jaw-dropping puppetry, and the alternate “Director's Cut” ending where the monstrous plant takes over the world. Andrew Gordon, Aaron Alexander & John Humphrey react, review, and break down both the Director's Cut and the original theatrical ending of Little Shop of Horrors, discussing the legacy of this bizarre, hilarious, and beloved musical.

Today, Earth's Mightiest Critics look back on the life of a comedy legend with an unconventional panel review of John Candy: I Like Me!Colin Hanks' presents a sprawling and thoroughly moving documentary about the star of SCTV, Uncle Buck, Planes, Trains & Automobiles, and dozens more comedy classics.Featuring interviews with co-stars, family, and friends, I Like Me paints a portrait of a man haunted by childhood tragedy who spent the rest of his life taking care of others (be it direct altruism or simply by making them laugh)--possibly to the detriment of his own well being. Far from a downer, this film is a celebration of life in the truest sense.Executive Producer Ryan Reynolds and friends recently screened the film at the Chicago Theatre, and several members of the EMC were there. Unfortunately, they couldn't all get together for roundtable, so Ian talked with Don, Cati, and David individually about several aspects of the doc, including its status as one of the best films this decade; the bizarrely performative nature of the Chicago Theatre Q&A; and the rise of the Celebrity Documentary genre.John Candy: I Like Me is now streaming on Amazon Prime.Support Kicking the Seat on Patreon, subscribe to us on YouTube, and follow us at:XLetterboxdInstagramFacebookShow LinksWatch the John Candy: I Like Me (2025) trailer.All proceeds from the I Like Me screening tour support St. Jude Children's Children's Research Hospital.

Ohio native Benny Kauff made his Major League debut in 1912. He jumped to the Federal League in 1914 where he emerged to stand among that circuit's best hitters.  After the Federal League folded, Kauff signed with John McGraw's New York Giants and claimed the team's center field position. Kauff held that spot until a New York grand jury indicted him for grand larceny (car theft) after the 1919 season. Kauff, also burdened with gambling accusations, played just 55 games for New York in 1920 then was traded in early July to a minor league team. In May, 1921, a New York jury acquitted Kauff of the grand larceny charge, but the baseball never lifted Kauff's suspension during his life. Kauff's is a wild tale about baseball, Tammany Hall justice, city life during the dead ball era, and a ballplayer that just maybe got a raw deal. Sources: ( )  Gary Joseph Cieradkowski, "Benny Kauff: Stealing Bases and Automobiles," Cieradkowski at https://studiogaryc.com/2018/08/03/benny-kauff-stealing-bases-and-automobiles/ (last accessed October 11, 2025); (2) David Jones, "Benny Kauff," Society for American Baseball Research at https://sabr.org/bioproj/person/benny-kauff/ (last accessed October 11, 2025); (3) Dozens of newspapers articles accessed via newspapers.com and (4) Statistics were available via Baseball Reference, https://www.baseball-reference.com/.Errata: Benny Kauff suffered from diphtheria in March 2021, not Kennesaw Mountain Landis.Please consider supporting Hooks & Runs by purchasing books, including those featured in this episode (if any were), through our store at Bookshop.org.

This week on The Tax Factor, Annie Hughes and Sarah Stenton look at the stories making headlines in tax and business. Annie looks at Revolut founder Nik Storonsky’s move from the UK to the UAE, part of a wider trend of wealthy individuals changing their tax residency since the non-dom regime ended. Sarah highlights HMRC’s warning to pensioners about withdrawal schemes that sound too good to be true, while across the Atlantic, Donald Trump’s threat of new truck tariffs adds more uncertainty to global trade.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

ROAD MOVIES: Stories that move us (literally).What makes a road movie work? Dave, Cody, and guest Andy Acker break down the secret sauce — the motion that transforms the characters, the odd couples who can't escape each other, the maps that never lead where they think, and the soundtracks that make it all feel alive.They swap their own road-trip stories (buses, bison, and breakdowns included), revisit classics like Planes, Trains and Automobiles, National Lampoon's Vacation, Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Little Miss Sunshine, Tommy Boy, and The Muppet Movie, and explore why these journeys still hit so hard — because sometimes, getting lost is the only way to find your people.Bonus detour: A quick look at the bizarre rise of “stay-at-home sons.”https://linktr.ee/PopCulturePastorPod

En Russie, c'est l'une des conséquences des sanctions prises au lendemain de l'invasion de l'Ukraine : les ventes de véhicules chinois ont explosé. Elles ont été multipliées par sept depuis 2022 ! Et malgré un marché de l'automobile morose, une nouvelle domination est en train de s'installer. Depuis le début de l'année, plus d'une voiture neuve sur deux vendues en Russie est de marque chinoise. Sur un parking d'un centre commercial, Mikhail recharge à une borne électrique sa berline, une Hongqi achetée il y a trois ans. « C'est sûr que conduire une voiture allemande, c'est bien plus agréable, mais ça va, en termes de confort, de stabilité et de tenue de route, cette voiture fait bien l'affaire. Après, c'est vrai qu'en hiver la batterie se décharge très vite. Ça, c'est un problème. Mais en été ou à ce moment de l'année, tout est parfait », dit-il.  Pour se rendre compte du phénomène, il suffit de se connecter sur l'application de VTC, Yandex. Aux côtés des marques coréennes ou japonaises, de plus en plus de courses sont proposées à bord de véhicules chinois. Taalay est originaire du Kirghizistan et s'il a opté pour une voiture de la marque Geely, c'est avant tout pour son prix. Pour un véhicule chinois moyenne gamme, il faut compter en Russie 2 millions de roubles en moyenne, soit à peu près 20 000 euros. « Aujourd'hui, sur le marché, les voitures chinoises sont bien plus accessibles… Donc moi, c'est le rapport qualité/prix qui m'a décidé. Et puis avec les sanctions, ça ne sert plus à rien d'avoir une voiture européenne, parce que c'est très dur de trouver des pièces détachées. Au moins, avec les voitures chinoises, vous n'avez aucun problème ! », explique-t-il. Un marché conquis après le départ des marques européennes Malgré un contexte économique difficile pour l'automobile en Russie, les constructeurs chinois continuent à gagner des parts de marché. Depuis le début de l'année, 500 000 véhicules chinois ont été vendus en Russie, ce qui représente plus de la moitié des ventes de voitures neuves. Nicolaï Nazaikinskii est journaliste, expert en automobile. « L'une des principales raisons, c'est l'introduction des sanctions occidentales. Quand les Européens ont quitté la Russie, ils ont aussi abandonné leurs concessions. Et les Chinois n'ont eu qu'à les remplacer... Ils ont juste repris leurs concessions et mis leurs logos à la place », indique-t-il. Pour écouler leurs voitures en Russie, les marques chinoises peuvent compter sur des taxes moins élevées qu'en Europe et aux États-Unis, des délais de livraisons plus courts. Mais ils assemblent aussi désormais plus de voitures sur le sol russe. « Nous avons plusieurs usines de voitures chinoises en Russie. La marque Haval avait ici deux usines avant les sanctions, mais vous avez désormais Chery qui assemble ses voitures, et d'autres marques prévoient de faire pareil. En fait, tout est devenu beaucoup plus simple pour ces marques, parce que les infrastructures sont déjà là. Il leur suffit de venir assembler leurs voitures là où les Européens le faisaient auparavant. » Mais cet afflux de voitures chinoises n'est pas sans inquiéter le Kremlin. En janvier, Moscou a décidé de relever les « frais de recyclage », c'est-à-dire des droits de douane pour limiter l'entrée des véhicules étrangers et ainsi protéger les constructeurs russes.

He is the author of Urban Playground: How Child-Friendly Urban Planning and Design Can Save Cities and No Fear: Growing Up in a Risk Averse Society. We met Tim when he appeared on a panel with Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo that Sarah moderated during Climate Week in New York. When we heard what he has to say about cities and children, we knew that we had to have him on the show. So we grabbed him before he could leave New York. We talked on a bench in City Hall Park on a weekday morning, so you can hear the sounds of a city that is waking up and going to work and school in the background. It was an appropriate setting for a chat about how we by making cities better for children, we make them better for everyone.  Support The War on Cars on Patreon and receive exclusive access to ad-free versions of regular episodes, Patreon-only bonus content, Discord access, invitations to live events, merch discounts and free stickers! ***Our new book, Life After Cars: Freeing Ourselves from the Tyranny of the Automobile, will be published on October 21, 2025 by Thesis, an imprint of Penguin Random House. Pre-order now.*** Find us on our book tour in San Francisco, Vancouver, Washington, DC, Portland, OR and more.

Le quatrième constructeur mondial annonce l'arrêt temporaire de plusieurs sites européens, alors même que ses ventes repartent légèrement à la hausse. Une décision qui illustre les difficultés profondes de l'automobile européenne, confrontée à la concurrence chinoise, aux coûts élevés et aux incertitudes réglementaires. Stellantis, qui réunit Peugeot, Citroën, Fiat et Opel, a décidé de suspendre la production dans plusieurs de ses usines européennes pendant trois semaines cet automne. Une annonce paradoxale, intervenue quelques jours avant la publication de chiffres de vente encourageants : en août, le groupe a enregistré une hausse, la première depuis plus d'un an. Mais sur un an, les ventes restent en recul de 10 %. Les stocks s'accumulent, et leur maintien coûte cher. D'où cette suspension temporaire, symbole des turbulences qui frappent toute l'industrie automobile européenne. À lire aussiComment l'UE peut relancer son économie face à la Chine et les États-Unis Un marché européen fragilisé et incertain Les constructeurs souffrent d'un marché en perte de vitesse. Les consommateurs conservent plus longtemps leurs véhicules et hésitent au moment d'acheter : faut-il choisir l'électrique, l'hybride ou rester au thermique ? L'interdiction programmée des moteurs essence et diesel en 2035, que Bruxelles vient de décider de réexaminer, entretient ce flou. À cela s'ajoutent des coûts de production élevés en Europe – énergie, charges sociales, réglementation stricte – et un retard considérable sur les batteries. Selon un rapport des équipementiers, l'industrie européenne accuse un désavantage de 15 % à 35 % face à ses concurrents chinois. À lire aussiComment expliquer les difficultés de l'industrie européenne? La percée chinoise et le risque social Ce handicap se traduit directement dans les ventes : le constructeur chinois BYD a vu ses immatriculations bondir de 200 % en un an sur le continent. Moins chères, mieux équipées et intégrées dans un écosystème efficace, les voitures chinoises séduisent de plus en plus de consommateurs. Un contraste amer pour l'Europe, pourtant riche en brevets et en savoir-faire. Si rien ne change, 350 000 emplois seraient menacés, selon une étude du cabinet Roland Berger. Faute de champion unique à l'échelle européenne, chaque pays défendant ses marques nationales, l'industrie automobile se retrouve à un carrefour. Comme le résume Antonio Filosa, patron de Stellantis : c'est désormais « une bataille pour la survie » et pour la place de l'Europe dans le secteur.

Thomas and Frank kick off a running series to assemble a living “Hall of Fame” of 100 movies covered on Challenge Accepted. In this first pass, they lock in the opening 20 picks across adventure, animation, sci-fi, horror, and sports drama. Along the way they talk performance standouts, scenes that shaped their taste, and how future rewatches and listener votes could bump titles up or off the board. Timestamps and Topics 00:03:52 Big Fish and why it still wrecks us in different seasons of life 00:05:07 Hook as 90s Goonies energy and a Robin Williams showcase 00:06:49 Tombstone and the definitive Doc Holliday performance 00:08:13 Raiders of the Lost Ark and the problem of recasting Indy 00:12:52 The Prestige and discovering a top tier Nolan on rewatch 00:14:48 Interstellar nomination and why it grew with repeat viewings 00:17:12 The Shining as prestige horror and a genre pivot point 00:18:23 In Time gets discussed but does not make the cut for now 00:20:00 Across the Spider Verse moves in after a better audio experience 00:22:47 Planes, Trains and Automobiles lands as a comedy essential 00:24:43 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) and its surprising emotional weight 00:28:38 Studio Ghibli slot: Spirited Away talk and the case for Kiki's Delivery Service 00:30:24 Dune: Part Two enters as modern epic sci-fi 00:34:38 Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and how the evolving list could reshuffle later 00:36:55 The Empire Strikes Back as the Star Wars representative 00:39:11 Jurassic Park and the marriage of practical and digital effects 00:41:02 The Iron Claw and a note on wrestling stories we will cover next 00:42:52 Superman (1978) closes the 20 with an all time origin story 00:48:27 Wrap up, what is coming next, and how listeners can influence the rankings The First 20 (Working List) Big Fish Hook Tombstone Raiders of the Lost Ark The Prestige Interstellar The Shining Spider Man: Across the Spider Verse Planes, Trains and Automobiles Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) Spirited Away or Kiki's Delivery Service (Ghibli slot) Dune: Part Two Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 The Empire Strikes Back Jurassic Park The Iron Claw Superman (1978) Plus a few near misses and future candidates Key Takeaways This is a living list. Titles can move as we review more films and as listeners weigh in. Emotional resonance matters as much as craft, from TMNT's farmhouse sequence to Big Fish's generational pull. Genre representatives help keep variety, like Empire for Star Wars and a Ghibli pick for animation. Craft notes: Jurassic Park's blend of practical and digital still sets the bar, and Vol. 3 sparks a James Gunn redemption chat. Community plan: we will combine Frank's rankings, Thomas's rankings, and a listener ballot to shape the master list. Quotes “The little things are the big things.” “He smashed it, dropped the mic, and went to DC.” “If you see a puddle shake, you're waiting for the T-Rex.” Call to Action Enjoying the Hall of Fame project?

If you spend any time at all on social media, you've seen countless videos of all kinds of different people talking about all kinds of different things with one setting in common: the car. We got together in the studio with journalist and author Mathew Rodriguez to discuss the way cars have become our nation's premier social media content studios—and all the weirdness that entails.  We talked drive-thrus, “Who the F*** Did I Marry,” monetizing the school pickup line, and the way that cars have become the backdrop for the great unscrolling American self-documentation effort.

Pre-order our new book, Life After Cars: Freeing Ourselves from the Tyranny of the Automobile, coming in October from Thesis, an imprint of Penguin Random House.

Brad Lander has been a fixture in New York's progressive political scene for nearly two decades now, and has earned a reputation as a strong advocate for bike lanes, bike share, driver accountability, and congestion pricing. This year, though, he's become known in a new way. As a candidate in a crowded Democratic mayoral primary, Brad cross-endorsed Zohran Mamdani, who eventually won the race with a margin that shocked the Democratic establishment. And in June, mere days before the primary ended, Brad was escorting a man named out of an immigration hearing when he was arrested by federal agents. Brad joins us to explain how his defense of the Prospect Park West bike lane as a then-new member of the New York City Council became a formative experience in his political career and why the courage and coalition building it takes to stand up for safe streets are also the same tools it takes to fight fascism.
