Stinker Madness - The Bad Movie Podcast
Final Destination 2: But this time, death is going in reverse. Diabolical!

Stinker Madness - The Bad Movie Podcast

Final Destination 2 is a symphony of stupidity—and I mean that as a compliment. It's the kind of gloriously dumb horror sequel that knows exactly what it is, knows exactly what you came for, and wastes not a single moment trying to be anything more. This is 90 minutes of elaborate, Rube Goldberg murder machines soaked in blood and irony, gleefully cooked up for maximum squirm, scream, and laugh-out-loud shock value. It's dumb, it's low-brow, and it's absolutely perfect at being both. The movie wastes no time setting the tone: a now-iconic highway pile-up that feels like someone gave Michael Bay a box of Hot Wheels and told him to film a snuff film. From there, the film doesn't bother with character development beyond “this one's kind of a jerk” and “that one's probably doomed” because it has better things to do—namely, assembling ludicrous, overly complex death scenes like it's competing in a sadistic engineering contest. The real star isn't any of the humans, it's the absurd chain reactions involving ladders, air bags, barbed wire, and a spaghetti of fate that could only exist in this series. What sets Final Destination 2 apart from other gore-porn offerings is its laser focus. It has a mission—deliver karmic, over-the-top death scenes wrapped in a thick coating of schlock—and it executes (pun intended). There's no meandering subplot, no slow-burn psychological twists. It's pure horror junk food: bloody, crunchy, and instantly satisfying. The movie also dials up the black comedy with every scene, letting the audience lean into the absurdity. It knows you're laughing at it, and it wants you to laugh harder. And let's talk karma—because this sequel adds an extra little spice to the kills. Everyone who gets got sort of had it coming, and the movie leans into this with a smug wink, giving the audience permission to cackle through the carnage. There's something almost therapeutic about watching these characters try to outmaneuver Death while it patiently flexes its Final Destination “gotcha” muscles. It's a greasy, gory good time, and unlike many horror sequels, it actually delivers what it promises—nothing more, but certainly nothing less.

James Gunn's Superman held its premiere in London July, 2, where the director confidently told The Times of London that his superhero epic celebrates "the story of America" and champions basic human kindness in a world that desperately needs it. Meanwhile, star David Corenswet shared at the London premiere that his predecessors did “a very Superman thing,” with former Men of Steel Henry Cavill and Tyler Hoechlin encouraging him to make the role his own.Universal's Jurassic World Rebirth chomped its way to a $147 million five-day weekend opening during the Fourth of July. While those numbers would make any studio exec happy, they're actually a steep drop from the franchise's predecessors, suggesting that after 32 years, audiences might be experiencing some dino-fatigue. Universal clearly saw the writing on the wall and slashed the production budget from a mammoth $250 million down to a more modest $180 million, but the franchise is still roaring overseas. Australian-American actor Julian McMahon, beloved for his roles in Nip/Tuck, Charmed, and as Dr. Doom in the 2000's 20th Century Fox Fantastic Four films, died peacefully on July 2nd at age 56 following a private battle with cancer.Michael Madsen, the gravel-voiced character actor best known for his menacing roles in Quentin Tarantino's Reservoir Dogs, Kill Bill, and The Hateful Eight, died Thursday morning from cardiac arrest at his Malibu home at age 67.The next installment in Denis Villenueve's Dune franchise will officially be titled Dune: Three. Villenueve also revealed that the film will be shot entirely using IMAX cameras.According to a rumor from The DisInsider, Disney and LucasFilm are having active conversations planning a full reboot of the Indiana Jones franchise.The Last of Us co-creator Neil Druckmann is stepping down as co-showrunner of the HBO series after completing work on season two, choosing to return his focus to video game development at Naughty Dog including his next project Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet. Craig Mazin will continue as sole showrunner for season three, while Druckmann retains his executive producer credit on the critically acclaimed series.The Office star Craig Robinson announced on Instagram that he's officially quitting comedy to focus on his true calling. However, industry insiders believe this is likely a marketing stunt, as mysterious billboards have appeared in Los Angeles and Robinson still has comedy shows scheduled through the end of the year.Chris Pratt will reprise his role as the voice of Garfield in an animated sequel to Sony's 2024 The Garfield Movie, which grossed over $230 million dollars at the worldwide box office.Wicked director Jon M. Chu has signed on to helm a live-action Hot Wheels movie for Warner Bros. and Mattel Studios, with screenwriters Juel Taylor and Tony Rettenmaier from Creed II and They Cloned Tyrone penning the script and J.J. Abrams' Bad Robot producing. The high-octane action film follows Mattel's success with Barbie as the toy company continues mining its properties for big-screen adaptations.Jimmy Olsen actor Skyler Gisondo revealed he mistakenly believed he was auditioning for the title role in James Gunn's Superman film, thinking the character name in his audition materials was just a placeholder to hide the fact he was reading for Clark Kent. The mix-up led to an awkward phone call with his representatives who had to clarify who he was actually auditioning for, though director James Gunn reportedly loved the story.

Here's your revised text, keeping the same format, content, and context, but changing the name from Jameson to James: Discovering Grayslake: Lessons in Creativity, Community, and the Toy Industry with “The Rock Father” Welcome to another in-depth exploration of “Discovering Grayslake,” where host David Wohl sits down with local luminaries to uncover the stories that make Grayslake a vibrant hometown. In this episode, David welcomes James—better known as “The Rock Father”—whose journey from the film and music industries to the heart of the toy world offers a masterclass in creativity, resilience, and community engagement. Whether you're a local business owner, a creative professional, or simply someone who loves a good story, this episode is packed with actionable insights and expert advice. Let's break down the main themes and tips from the conversation, offering you a comprehensive guide to building a meaningful career and community presence—right here in Grayslake or wherever you call home. Table of Contents The Power of Community Connections Building a Creative Career: Lessons from “The Rock Father” Navigating the Toy Industry: Trends, Challenges, and Opportunities Balancing Digital and Physical Play for Kids Giving Back: Leveraging Your Platform for Community Good Celebrating Grayslake: Local Favorites and Family Life Actionable Takeaways for Listeners 1. The Power of Community Connections  Key Insight:   Even in a small town, it's easy to miss out on knowing everyone. But the magic of Grayslake lies in the connections you make—whether at the farmers market, a local restaurant, or through shared community projects. Actionable Advice: Attend Local Events:**     James and David both highlight the importance of participating in community events like the farmers market, holiday tree lighting, and pride parade. These gatherings are not just fun—they're opportunities to meet neighbors, support local businesses, and build lasting relationships. Join Local Organizations:**     Bill Mack's mention of the Grayslake Chamber of Commerce underscores the value of joining local groups. Membership offers networking, support, and a platform to amplify your business or cause. Support Local Businesses:**     Frequenting spots like Cinco Hermanos, Bake Share, Tony's Butcher Shop, and Andy's Records not only enriches your own experience but strengthens the local economy. Expert Tip:   If you're new to town or looking to expand your network, start by volunteering at community events or joining a committee. You'll quickly find your place in the fabric of Grayslake. 2. Building a Creative Career: Lessons from “The Rock Father”  Key Insight:   James's journey from a young writer in the Chicago suburbs to a leading voice in the toy industry is a testament to perseverance, adaptability, and the courage to take risks. Actionable Advice: Embrace Your Passions Early:**     James's first writing award in 1987 set the stage for a lifetime of storytelling. Don't underestimate the power of early interests—they can shape your career trajectory. Diversify Your Skills:**     From cable access TV in high school to interviewing major bands and working in retail, James's varied experiences gave him a broad skill set. Be open to learning in unexpected places. Take Calculated Risks:**     Leaving established companies to start his own platform was a leap of faith. While not every risk pays off, each one offers valuable lessons and new opportunities. Learn from Failure:**     James is candid about setbacks, emphasizing that failures are stepping stones to growth. Reflect on what didn't work, adjust your approach, and keep moving forward. Expert Tip:   Document your journey—whether through blogging, social media, or a personal journal. Not only does this help you track progress, but it can also inspire others and open doors to new collaborations. 3. Navigating the Toy Industry: Trends, Challenges, and Opportunities  Key Insight:   The toy industry is a microcosm of global trends—shaped by manufacturing shifts, tariffs, technological innovation, and changing play patterns. Actionable Advice: Understand the Manufacturing Landscape:**     Most iconic toys have always been made overseas (e.g., Barbie in Japan, G.I. Joe in Hong Kong/Vietnam, Hot Wheels in Malaysia).   Offshoring since the 1970s means U.S. manufacturing infrastructure is limited; reshoring requires massive investment and time. Monitor Tariff Impacts:**     Current tariffs on Chinese imports are around 30%, affecting prices for both businesses and consumers.   Small business owners often absorb these costs, but ultimately, higher prices reach the end user. Stay Ahead of Technology:**     AI and digital integration are reshaping toys (e.g., Mattel's partnership with OpenAI).   Not all tech-enabled toys succeed—2023 saw several underperforming launches, showing the need for thoughtful innovation. Engage with Industry Resources:**     Publications like The Toy Book (trade-focused) and The Toy Insider (consumer-focused) offer valuable insights, gift guides, and trend analysis. Expert Tip:   If you're a business owner or creative in the toy space, attend trade shows (like Toy Fair or Comic-Con) to network, spot trends, and build relationships with industry leaders. 4. Balancing Digital and Physical Play for Kids  Key Insight:   Children's play is evolving, with digital experiences increasingly competing with traditional toys. The challenge—and opportunity—is to find a healthy balance. Actionable Advice: Encourage Hybrid Play:**     Look for toys that merge physical and digital elements, such as those that interact with platforms like Roblox or offer augmented reality features. Be Mindful of Screen Time:**     James advocates for a measured approach—introduce technology thoughtfully and ensure kids have plenty of hands-on, imaginative play. Evaluate Play Value:**     When choosing toys, consider not just the initial excitement but the potential for long-term engagement and developmental benefits. Expert Tip:   Use resources like The Toy Insider's website to filter toys by play duration and developmental focus, helping you make informed choices for your family. 5. Giving Back: Leveraging Your Platform for Community Good  Key Insight:   True community spirit means using your resources and connections to lift others up—especially those in need. Actionable Advice: Partner with Local Organizations:**     James's work with Avon Township to provide holiday gifts for families in need is a model for impactful giving. Find local groups that align with your values and offer your support. Leverage Industry Connections:**     If you have access to products, services, or expertise, consider how you can channel these to benefit local schools, community centers, or families. Be Proactive:**     Don't wait for the holidays—needs exist year-round. Reach out to community leaders to identify ongoing opportunities to help. Expert Tip:   If you're in Grayslake and need toys or support for a community project, don't hesitate to contact James or similar local advocates. Building a network of helpers multiplies your impact. 6. Celebrating Grayslake: Local Favorites and Family Life  Key Insight:   Grayslake's charm lies in its blend of small-town warmth, diverse events, and family-friendly amenities. Actionable Advice: Explore Local Events:**     From the farmers market to Central Park concerts and the holiday tree lighting, there's always something happening. Make it a family tradition to attend together. Support Local Dining:**     Favorites like First Draft, Sammy's, Cinco Hermanos, and Bake Share offer not just great food but a sense of belonging. Get Involved in the Arts:**     With opportunities for kids in theater, dance, and music, Grayslake nurtures creativity at every age. Expert Tip:   If you're new to town, ask neighbors or local business owners for their favorite spots and events. You'll quickly feel at home. 7. Actionable Takeaways for Listeners  Network Locally:**     Attend events, join organizations, and support local businesses to build meaningful connections. Pursue Your Passions:**     Don't be afraid to take risks, diversify your skills, and learn from setbacks. Stay Informed:**     Use industry resources to keep up with trends, especially if you're in a fast-changing field like toys or media. Balance Technology:**     Encourage both digital and physical play for kids, and be mindful of screen time. Give Back:**     Use your platform, however big or small, to support those in need in your community. Celebrate Your Hometown:**     Embrace the unique events, businesses, and people that make your town special. Final Thoughts James's story is a reminder that every path—no matter how winding—can lead to fulfillment when rooted in passion, resilience, and community.

That is, until Jaws was released. Adapted from a novel by Peter Benchley, Steven Spielberg took on the challenge of filming this movie an the actual ocean with a not-actual shark. It was an overnight success and moviegoers lined up around the block to get terrified of going to the beach. Plus, it spawned a ton of sequels and knock-offs. After this, movies changed forever. And so did Spielberg's career. Let's take a look at Jaws and what came after it.    When did you see Jaws? Were you afraid to go into the water afterwards?

There's no question that times were much simpler in my youth. Toys were much simpler. Anything that might be considered high-tech required six D-sized batteries to operate. I'm sure technology plays a significant role in our loss of this simplicity. I used to love playing with Silly Putty. Even though its origins are technology-based, as a failed rubber substitute, it was a simple toy. Outside of Barbie and Hot Wheels, most of the toys from my younger days are long gone.

On Episode No. 121 of Fear and Loathing in Cinema, America's favorite caffeine-fueled cinephiles do what any responsible adults would: they metaphorically strap themselves to the hood of a psychedelic Hot Wheels car and rocket straight into the candy-colored chaos of 2008's Speed Racer. It's the episode longtime listeners have waited for and longtime haters will pretend not to enjoy. While co-host Dan Moran is presumably still hungover on a beach somewhere in Jamaica, contemplating existence through the bottom of a rum bottle and the lens of a pair of novelty sunglasses, Chelsea Nicole returns from podcasting exile. Once vocal critics of the film, both Preston Barta and Chelsea arrive reborn, their opinions evolved, their chakras aligned with the Mach 5. It's character development worthy of the Wachowskis themselves. Joining the gang is none other than Kristi Shimek, editing wizard, recurring guest, and one-time spiritual leader of My Bloody Podcast's Lake Mungo episode. In a twist so poetic it would make M. Night Shyamalan consider early retirement, it was Kristi, yes, Kristi, who chose Speed Racer as this episode's topic. Turns out, she didn't just like the movie. She wrote her thesis on it. A thesis. About Speed Racer. This is, academically speaking, a baller move. The post Episode #121 – Speed Racer (2008) first appeared on Boomstick Comics.
