This week, we're going deep on 1990's modest hit "Mermaids." We talk about Cher, Winona Ryder, Bob Hoskins, the 1960s, moms, and more Cher. Listen now.
In this nostalgia-packed, mushroom-fueled episode, Woody and Tyler plunge headfirst into the pixelated madness of one of the strangest movies of the 1990s…The Super Mario Bros. movie.Yes—the live-action one.Yes—with Bob Hoskins.Yes—that one.Released just weeks before Jurassic Park, this movie was supposed to be a surefire hit. Instead, it became one of the most confusing, chaotic, and accidentally brilliant disasters ever to grace the big screen.This week, we explore the bizarre legacy of the first-ever video game movie, complete with:
This week on So Many Sequels, Josh and Garrett hold it down while David's off on a very important mission: hand-counting box office tickets.We're catching up on what we've been watching and what's making headlines. We break down the emotional finale of The Pitt, celebrate the dramatic genius of Bob Hoskins in The Long Good Friday, and reflect on Netflix's powerful new Oklahoma City bombing documentary.Then, we dive into some spicy Marvel trailer discourse—Fantastic Four and Thunderbolts—plus, some cautious curiosity about Ryan Gosling's upcoming Star Wars debut.Plus: a look at the weekend box office numbers and a reminder that not every Marvel movie is a referendum on the entire MCU.
A nostalgia fueled look at some of my favorite films and filmmakers. Also, my dad is better than yours.Also, I would like to mention Who Framed Roger Rabbit? ... Not sure how I did an episode talking about my favorite films without mentioning it, but that appears to be what happened. Who Framed Roger Rabbit was a massive inspiration to me! It captured my imagination in a way that nothing had up to that point, and nothing has up to this point in my life. To this day I still watch it and forget that Bob Hoskins and Christopher Lloyd aren't actually acting with cartoons. It holds up incredibly well and is the perfect example of how what can happen when perception meets reality. Also, my dad is still better than yours.Find the unofficial soundtracks of Dark Days and Dark[er] Days of Dorothy Gale on Spotify.Dark Days of Dorothy Gale (unofficial) Soundtrackhttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/5bjCrgTamdm0RxhyOYvsdf?si=AszR3_bMSf2DEAD4nYU-4g&pi=06jh8mD3RiC6CDark[er] Days of Dorothy Gale (unofficial) Soundtrackhttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/1bBSq3QXP618HZHGwmwymT?si=c20i6btbQ_-HNA26r3n7rg&pi=o6ZlsklzQYyZKThe Grand Storyteller Playlist (both epic playlists combined)https://open.spotify.com/playlist/05HorkPnZ5tor1AiCBvVMn?si=pxopRZswQf2vQ8BewGxKWg&pi=1kTg0-XmTGi_-You can find me on TikTok: @DarkDorothyG You can contact me at DarkDaysOfDorothyGale@outlook.comYou can find even more on my other TikTok, and Instagram accounts under the alias @TheOrdinarySun If social media isn't your jam, check out the official website! https://www.DDofDG.com I'm not doing this to make money, and I'm not asking for any.

Robert William Hoskins, actor, born 26 October 1942; died 29 April 2014.It didn't matter that this guy—who left school at 15 to become a bouncer, porter, window cleaner, and fire-eater—went on to become ridiculously famous. He was always down-to-earth: "Actors are just entertainers, even the serious ones. That's all an actor is. He's like a serious Bruce Forsyth."Hoskins could play serious and scary, then turn on a dime to reveal sweetness and a big heart.A chance audition led him to the theatre, which opened the door to roles in BBC dramas and a beloved ad for British Telecom, where he delivered the catchphrase "It's good to talk." Around that time, Francis Ford Coppola cast him in The Cotton Club (1984), and suddenly he was in movies. Brazil followed, then Sweet Liberty, his Oscar-nominated turn as an ex-con in Mona Lisa, the blockbuster Who Framed Roger Rabbit, Heart Condition, Mermaids, Hook, and Oliver Stone's Nixon, where he played J. Edgar Hoover."You don't go to Hollywood for art," he said in 1999. "And once you've got your fame and fortune—especially the fortune in the bank—you can do what you want to do. It's basically f**k-you money."In 2012, at 69, he announced his retirement after being diagnosed with Parkinson's. Two years later, he died from pneumonia.Miss you, Bob Hoskins.

Send us a textKatie and Bridget think happy thoughts as they re-watch the what-felt-like-80's-but-was-made-in-the-90's: Hook! Come along as we follow the ADULT Peter Pan, who has amnesia and is also kind of a dick now. When his two kids Jack and Maggie get kidnapped by Captain Hook, Peter has to get the real talk (but also has to mainly get kidnapped by Tinkerbell) to be taken to Neverland to find them! Once there he quickly bitches out on saving them and has to go through Lost Boys bootcamp to become the Peter Pan he once was/beat his amnesia - seriously this movie could have also been called Amnesia Island! Will Peter Pan earn the respect of the Lost Boys, learn to fly, survive for 3 days without food/vitamins, and ultimately save his children? Should Captain Hook just become a drag queen already so we can see some of those awesome wigs and outfits on the dance floor!? Released in 1991, it was directed by Steven Spielberg and stars Robin Williams, Dustin Hoffman, Julia Roberts, Bob Hoskins, Maggie Smith, Caroline Goodall, Dante Basco, Charlie Korsmo, and Amber Scott.

The 3 stories are:The race for the IOC big job - aka Bach's overtures (this doesn't make any sense but makes me sound like I know about classical music, which I don't, apart from that theme from the Hovis ad). Six months ago the word on the street was that Seb Coe wasn't running, and now he is. So, was the word wrong, or did he change his mind? Probably the former. Also, is the Samaranch name an asset or liability in the crusty world of IOC voting membership, the age profile of which makes the Tory party conference look like Coachella. Also, did you know Samaranch really likes crisps, so that's a mark in the yes column from my pov. Why Australia are paying 100million NOT to host The Commonwealth Games- echoes of the late, great Bob Hoskins, who used to tell a story about Brian DePalma paid him a couple of hundred grand not to play Al Capone in The Untouchables. Anyhow, it's hard to get beyond the ‘What's the point?' trope when the CGs is in the headlines. The messaging this week has been around Glasgow getting the games for ‘free', but - like lunch - I suspect that major quadrennial multisport events are rarely free.

This week the question is asked: does having had read The Deadly Percheron enhance the viewing experience of this grimy, English, 80s neo-noir about sex work, blackmail, and unrequited love? It turns out that this doesn't really matter, because… Bob Hoskins. Join our Patreon and support the podcast!

When you're getting into the concepts of SOME BULLSHIT TOMORROWs many classic literary interpretations have stood the test of time. It's felt “1984” a few times this month and today's selection is no different but perhaps it feels a little closer in its mediocre society. Things are cluttered, disconnected and cartoonishly inept. Life lived under paperwork and forms in drab buildings, some of them you hope you never see inside of. The best of your reality is in your dreams but when the faces in your dreams appear in reality then you just might see a chance to rise above the drab world. A creative tour de force by Terry Gilliam early in his “post Python” film career, it remains a visually impressive work of humor and devastation that stands out amongst his unique filmmaking career. When talking about dystopia on film it's hard not to include Gilliam's 1985 film “BRAZIL” starring Jonathan Pryce, Kim Greist, Robert De Niro, Ian Holm, Michael Palin, Bob Hoskins & Katherine Helmond to name a few. There is some good in this world. Good men who want to help. Good people who want to care for their neighbors. Can they make it in this very familair ultra-propagandized society? God willing, return I will to Old Brazil.

Albums and All That, Starting with the letter S as in Sierra, Part 9 From Something to Shout About (Lulu) to Sophisticated Boom Boom (Dead or Alive) Oh hey, by the way... there is now a Vinyl-O-Matic Patreon (https://patreon.com/youroldpalwill) Lulu with The Luvvers [00:30] "Chocolate Ice" Something to Shout About Decca LK 4719 1965 Hey hey hey! It's Lulu! This is her debut album. Despite what you might guess from her voice, she was 17 when she recorded this album. "Chocolate Ice" is the excellent title song to the very weird Gonks Go Beat (https://youtu.be/XhozBIMplQA?si=ULHH1FdCqSWJPyJ5) (Hartford-Davis, 1964), featuring Lulu and The Luvvers, The Nashville Teens, and the Graham Bond Organisation Todd Rundgren [02:40] "Hello It's Me" Something / Anything? Bearsville 2BX 2066 1972 Rundgren's 3rd solo album, spreading his musical wings a bit more than previous releases. Todd had originally written the song as a very mellow ballad with the Nazz in 1967, and was released as a b-side (https://youtu.be/FmLnDL_pNZQ?si=enMwjWzgNe_iplus) to their psyche rocker "Open My Eyes". Usually I'd go with the power pop progenitor "Couldn't I Just Tell You (https://youtu.be/fosMLTCFKQ8?si=Dgn25DMa61xCFRbJ)", but well, I'm feeling more mid-tempo at the moment. Jimmy Buffett [07:29] "Cheeseburgers in Paradise" Son of a Son of a Sailor ABC Records AA-1046 1976 Let me be perfectly clear: I am not now, nor have I ever been a Parrot Head. However, I do love cheeseburgers. This is the lead single from Buffett's eighth solo album. The single made it to #32 on the Hot 100. There's also a much-watered-down version of "Livingston Saturday Night", which can be heard to greater effect (https://youtu.be/5uizFyDRxso?si=ZfVrun8krTdxzagG) on the Rancho Deluxe (Perry, 1975) soundtrack, see also: Season 5, Episode 76 (https://vinylomatic.com/s05e76). Harry Nilsson [10:20] "It Is He Who Will Be King/Daybreak" Son of Dracula Rapple Records ABL1-0220 1974 The only new Nilsson song on this soundtrack. The less said about the actual film. Count Downe (Nilsson) is invited to take over Count Dracula's throne by Merlin (Ringo Starr). Lots of monsters and lots of rock stars, including Keith Moon and John Bonham, Peter Frampton, Bobby Keys, Klaus Voorman, and Leon Russell. Watch at your own peril (https://youtu.be/IIik_o16sro?si=WvmR54QPJ16Qmd6s). Great packaging for the record though, includine a die-cut gatefold and an iron on transfer for the cover image with "Bite Me" written in goth script below. Julian Bahula's Jazz Africa [16:15] "Molebatsi" Son of the Soil Tsafrika Records TSA 001 1982 A great collective outing composed by this South African by way of Britain drummer/composer/bandleader. I picked this one up at Revolution Records in Amsterdam. If Google Translate isn't lying to me, this title translates to "Smoker" from Swati. And a smoker it is. The Temptations [21:46] "Shakey Ground" A Song for You Gordy G6-969S1 1975 One of several excellent P-Funk-backed tracks on this album. There's a pretty excellent Delbert McClinton version of this song as well (https://youtu.be/w7JCWoxtGLs?si=tLtnwaOT1j24Tgvy). The Exbats [25:47] "Like It Like I Do" Song Machine Goner Records GONE 192 2023 And boy do I like it! Another excellent outing from Bisbee AZ denizens Inez and Kenny and friends (https://youtu.be/l-Onx5zVfMs?si=OSeD0DJHPaOZ4NGW). They pretty much just keep getting awesomer and awesomer. Big Black [28:17] "L Dopa" Songs About Fucking Touch and Go T&G LP #24 1987 Scorching. And sadly, fare thee well, Steve. To anyone interested in recording, Steve and Electric Audio provided (and still provide) a wealth of information, as for instance: Everything you've ever wanted to know about tape alignment but were afraid to ask (https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLXA7imybaTsFWOFpaeP8wgXNDlZ4Xc8yq&si=ZMsU_ifbEBbmp6Kh).

Videogame movies are known to be a bit rough. Some might even say that almost all of them are terrible. While that may not be true for today's videogame adaptations, it certainly was when Hollywood started to make them. And that's what we're checking out this week, the first-ever videogame movie: 1993's Super Mario Bros. Considered to be one of the worst films from the 90s, it stars Bob Hoskins as Mario, John Leguizamo as Luigi, Dennis Hopper as Bowser (kind of, not really), and may be one of the worst adaptations we've ever reviewed. It gets everything wrong. But is it really as unwatchable as many people think it is?Join our Patreon for TWO bonus episodes each month! https://www.patreon.com/oldiebutagoodiepodFollow the show!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/oldiebutagoodiepod/Facebook: https://fb.me/oldiebutagoodiepodPodcast Platforms: https://linktr.ee/oldiebutagoodiepodGot feedback?

This week we ruin some perfectly good standalone movies with unnecessary sequels or prequels! Roger Rabbit has been dead for years, so why is his silhouette being found at so many crimescenes?

Today on another encore edition of the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to Victoria Riskin, daughter of actress Fay Wray & screenwriter Robert Riskin. We first learned about Victoria in a Los Angeles Times interview with her about her book, Fay Wray and Robert Riskin: A Hollywood Memoir & boy are we glad we reached out. Better yet, Victoria was an engaging guest full of great stories about her mother and father, her years growing up in Los Angeles, long lost LA haunts, her mother's fortitude over the years and her own career in Hollywood. While the kids love the buzz word, ‘iconic' these days, it's also the only real word to capture Fay Wray. She had a wonderfully full career in Hollywood which we discuss but it's her signature role as Ann Darrow in the 1933 film King Kong which fans remember as part of the golden age of Hollywood – and beyond. We also discuss her father, who wrote films for Frank Capra and we get a glimpse into their private life and courtship via our conversation about her memoir. There's also talk about Mary Tyler Moore, John Lithgow, Michael Caine, Bernadette Peters and Bob Hoskins. And if you've never heard of C.C. Brown's Ice Cream Parlor, well you are missing out on more Hollywood lore you never knew existed. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and everyone has a story.

Rivka and Frank are joined by journalist Rebecca Burns for a conversation about Robert Zemeckis' 1988 masterpiece Who Framed Roger Rabbit. They talk about how the film draws inspiration from Los Angeles' history, like “The Great Red Car Conspiracy” and the Chavez Ravine. They also discuss how the film's “Toons” serve as a stand-in for LA's marginalized communities, the incredible technical achievements of the film, the tension between Disney and Warner Bros, and how Bob Hoskins is a sexy little hairy meatball. Against the Wind (The American Prospect, 2024) For next week's movie, we'll be watching the 1986 movie musical classic Little Shop of Horrors.
