And is this film actually one of the most important Canadian films ever made? The answer to that last question is yes. For answers to the other questions, you'll just have to listen.

Dead John Hughes pops in from Hell to answer some questions then the boys discuss this hit from the late great Canadian  comedian, John Candy. That's right, the star of today's film was from America's new axis of evil, Canada. Oh, how the world has changed since 1989.  Links You can rate and review us in these places (and more, probably) Does This Still Work? - TV Podcast https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/does-this-still-work-1088105 ‎Does This Still Work? on Apple Podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/does-this-still-work/id1492570867 Creator Accountability Network creatoraccountabilitynetwork.org.

This week on the Exciting & New podcast, Jason, Andy and Dana welcome Logan back on the podcast as they discuss the 1985 comedy Brewster's Millions.   In this Richard Pryor vehicle, a way-past-his-prime baseball pitcher inherits an insane amount of money.   But first he must spend an insane amount of money.   John Candy is the awesome best friend.  Stephen Collins is the child molester (in real life, not this movie).   We all have a great time discussing how we would spend $30 million and agree it wouldn't be that hard.   This movie holds up.  Enjoy the podcast!

John Candy plays a soap opera writer caught in his own fictional town with his own fictional creations.  Must be nice.

Send us a textWe have a special surprise this week; MRT VIP listener and very good friend Andrew is back with us as a guest host!  And we have provided him with his own shake-up for the Eyes Wide Open theme; his pick had to be based on a book. And so he chose the 1985 gem, "Brewster's Millions" starring Richard Pryor and John Candy.  This film's interesting premise requires the main character to spend $30 million in 30 days in order to inherit $300 million. However, there are some. . . restrictions.  The film is based on a novel that's over a century old and has been made into a movie adaptation at least seven times.We also go through our own "Brewster's Millions" scenarios and of course, talk about how great 1980s films were. So join us, as we spend lavishly (and hypothetically.)  And make sure you get a receipt!

It's 106 miles to Chicago, they've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and they're wearing sunglasses....The brothers are Joliet Jake Blue (John Belushi) and Elmwood Blues (Dan Ackroyd)....and they're on a mission from God.  Well actually they're on a mission to save the Catholic home where they grew up and to get the band back together.  Seems simple enough but there are a LOT of obstacles in their way including US Marshalls, Chicago police, Illinois State Troopers, the Illinois Nazis, the Good Ol' Boys, and...the late, great Carrie Fisher playing "Mystery Woman" who comes HEAVILY armed! :o John Landis (Animal House, Coming to America, An American Werewolf in London) directed this wildly ambitious action comedy musical loosely adapted from the two titular fictional brothers who performed on Saturday Night Live around this time.  Plot is but an afterthought when you have wall-to-wall car chases and/or extended musical numbers from several R&B music luminaries including Ray Charles, Cab Calloway, James Brown, Aretha Franklin, John Lee Hooker, and Chaka Khan.  And that's not even accounting for an extended stacked cast including Kathleen Freeman, John Candy, Steven Williams, Henry Gibson, Charles Napier, and countless others!Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene GershonSend us a texthttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

SNL celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2025 but we didn't start watching it until the 1990s. As Canadian kids with bedtimes in the 80s, we had more exposure to SCTV, the incredible sketch comedy show that featured an outrageously talented cast from Second City. Andrea Martin, Catherine O'Hara, Joe Flaherty, Eugene Levy, Dave Thomas, John Candy and Harold Ramis and later Rick Moranis and Martin Short on one show! In this episode, we reminisce with our good friend, Marcus J, and revisit our favourite movies featuring SCTV alumni. It's a beauty, eh!

Get ready for a wild ride with #All2ReelToo as we dive into the #SoBadItsGood movie, #NothingButTrouble (1991)

SEASON 3 EPISODE 114: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) SPECIAL COMMENT: NO, NBC NEWS AND KRISTEN WELKER - YOU IDIOTS - TRUMP HAS NEVER BEEN 'JOKING' ABOUT A 3RD TERM: Only to dimwitted media types who have been lying to themselves and their audience was it a shock when Welker insisted yesterday to Trump that he’s “joking” about stealing an unconstitutional and illegal third term and the Dictator replying “No I’m not joking, I’m not joking" and he alluded to several ways to game the 22nd Amendment Term Limits. Trump has been serious about this since at least 2023 and the first time I reported on that fact on this podcast was on Wednesday, November 8th… 2023. This has been the plan (like all the other plans) take something unconstitutional and illegal and do it anyway and dare you to sue and get his Concierge Supreme Court to invent a new law and a new country to LET him do it anyway AND insist THIS is the law and if you oppose him, YOU’RE breaking it. That’s the way they papered over Trump’s violation of the Insurrection Clause in the 14th Amendment. Worse yet, the man who has best encapsulated the evil inside Trump, Yale History professor Timothy Snyder, is leaving the country. Literally. Moving to the University of Toronto. If that doesn't tell you all you need to know about how much Trump is NOT kidding. IF ANYBODY STOPS TRUMP it'll be the corporations and Wall Street types who suddenly realize that when he said he'd cook the economy to give all the money to the rich guys he meant just him and Musk. Or maybe it'll be Trump's Intel Community. Somebody is leaking career-ending stories about Pete Hegseth and Bring-Your-Wife-To-Secret-Meetings-Work-Day and Bring-Your-Brother-Into-A-Nepo-Job-Day and I wonder who it could be. Perhaps the National Security Advisor who needs Hegseth to take the fall for SignalGate and just happens to have the number of the editor of The Atlantic programmed into his phone? If we're lucky maybe Hegseth and Mike Waltz will accomplish the rare simultaneous double knockout! B-Block (33:06) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Anna Paulina Luna thinks NBC is hiding a videotape with time code proving Oswald wasn't at the JFK Assassination (three years before time code was invented). A would-be GOP Nominee for Governor of Virginia thinks Anne Frank appeared in a classroom in California 20 years ago to tell gang bangers about the holocaust. And Bill Maher has self-destructed again. Now he thinks he's going to meet Trump because they respect him, because he was the first to predict Trump wouldn't leave office, and to heal the country. And Chris Cuomo and Gavin Newsom are there to reinforce Bill's gullibility! C-Block (49:00) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: So I've resumed my TV sports career! I am back on the air this week in pre-season specials on nine regional baseball networks that carry nine major league clubs. This kinda conflicts with my complaints about the same guys doing sports and politics at this time. I'll explain my rationale.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week, I'm recommending four movies that have some connection to Ireland, whether through folklore, setting, or just a certain Irish sensibility. There's a mix of fantasy, horror, family-friendly adventure, and romantic drama, so no matter what you're in the mood for, you might find something here to check out.The Secret of Roan Inish (1994) – A quiet, beautifully filmed story about a girl uncovering her family's past on a small Irish island. Directed by John Sayles, it weaves folklore into everyday life in a way that feels completely natural. The cinematography captures the beauty of the Irish coast, and the film has a slow, almost dreamlike quality. It's based on the book Secret of the Ron Mor Skerry, but Sayles changed the setting to Ireland and made it feel like an old story passed down through generations. If you like films that take their time and let you soak in the atmosphere, this is one to watch.Note: I am not sure why I cannot properly differentiate the syllables when I pronounce Roan Inish. I kept trying to say it with two syllables in a natural way, but when it did it blends. Not sure why.Leprechaun (1993) – A horror-comedy that leans into its absurd premise and I love it! Warwick Davis plays the title character, and his performance is a big part of what makes the movie memorable. The film was originally meant to be more of a straight horror movie, but as they shot it, they leaned into the campy humor. This was Jennifer Aniston's first film role, before Friends made her famous, and it's fun to see her in an early ‘90s horror setting. The movie spawned a long series of sequels so if you enjoy this kind of thing, there's a lot more to watch.The Luck of the Irish (2001) – A Disney Channel Original Movie that a lot of people remember from childhood. It follows a teenager who finds out he's part leprechaun, which leads to some strange changes in his life. Like a lot of early 2000s Disney Channel movies, it has a mix of comedy, adventure, and a little bit of sports. The villain, played by Timothy Omundson, gives an over-the-top performance that makes the movie more fun than it probably should be. If you grew up watching it, it's a nostalgic rewatch, and if you haven't seen it, it's an interesting look at the kind of family movies Disney was making at the time.Only the Lonely (1991) – A romantic dramedy starring John Candy in a more low-key role. In it, he plays a Chicago cop dealing with his overbearing mother, played by Maureen O'Hara, while trying to start a relationship with a shy funeral home worker, played by Ally Sheedy. O'Hara came out of retirement for this film, and she still had the same screen presence she had in movies like The Quiet Man. Chris Columbus directed this, right around the time he was making Home Alone, and you can see a similar mix of warmth and humor. It's an underrated John Candy performance, showing more depth than his usual comedic roles. If you like movies that balance comedy with a little drama, it's worth checking out.That's this week's recommendations. If you end up watching any of these, let me know what you think and remember someone will be back behind the counter next week with four more recommendations.Thanks for reading Video Store Podcast!

The movie you're making us watch today is The Great Outdoors (1988)! This classic John Candy and Dan Aykroyd comedy throws us into a vacation from hell, complete with bear attacks, speedboat mishaps, and Aykroyd's relentless one-upping. But this time, we're not watching alone—our guest and good friend Haig chose this movie, so you can blame him for all the 80s nostalgia, dad jokes, and questionable vacation planning.

Len & Jim reflect on Don's research & his contributions to the JFK assassination research. Thomas has chapters dedicated to the Tippit shooting, ballistic evidence & Ruby's fake polygraph test. Thomas was previously featured on Black Op Radio episode #492 in 2010. Len & Jim met Don at the San Francisco presentation in 2019, Black Op Radio episode #924. At a Lancer conference, Don featured the Stare of Death autopsy photo of JFK's wound. Don blew up photo, asking the audience what they thought of the horizontal wound in JFK's hairline. Jim reads & answers questions from Black Op Radio listeners. Barbara S. writes in to bring awareness of 'Night of Camp David' & the similarities with Trump. Jim recalls the story line for 'Canadian Bacon' staring John Candy. The MSM is getting ready to debunk any of the new information released to the public. Oswald must be portrayed as the 'lone nut assassin' at all costs by the MSM. MSM credibility is lost. CNN recently let go 200 employees after losing their large following. People are waking up. Does Jim think Trump will truly release the JFK documents? Will documents be missing? Redacted? Ron asks if Jim believes anything revealing or incriminating will be released in the JFK documents. Jim would really like to see the documents related to Mexico City released. Jim Garrison said New Orleans was just one of the four corners of the JFK assassination. Will the release of JFK files be restricted to the HSCA files? ARRB files? Will we finally be allowed to view withheld IRS documents? Will Jackie Kennedy's notes on her relationship with Lyndon Johnson be released? As Oswald travelled to the Soviet Union, someone was manipulating his files in Washington. Will the Federal government release anything of value regarding the RFK assassination? Jim feels so. Jim believes there will be significant documents regarding the assassination of MLK. The litmus test for Trump is, will he follow through with the release of the assassination documents? Len is optimistic that Trump has just defunded the USAID. Will RFK Jr. truly make food healthy again? RFK Jr. outed Bernie Sanders for taking in over a million dollars from pharmaceutical companies. Video Here Watch Bernie lose his mind - Bernie Sanders spars with RFK Jr. during confirmation hearing Bobby Kennedy has been the most successful lawyer in taking on health and enviromental issues Why were Fauci & others pardoned by Biden? What was he charged with? When was he charged? How can you be pardoned for a crime that you haven't been charged with yet?

We kick off February in style, with the start of our Sweet Candy month, focusing on the softer, more down-to-earth side of the late, great John Candy. First up is Summer Rental, directed by Carl Reiner. It's a fun movie pitting Candy against a wonderfully mean Richard Crenna. There's boats and beaches and it's a fun summer!

The gang kicks off Valentine's month with Kara and MTD as they discuss the movie "Haunted Honeymoon" from 1986. This movie has little to discuss but as usual they have a blast talking about how bad this movie really is. Kara talks about how she got a note on her car for double parking, Brad talks about how much he loves Gene Wilder movies and Then Kara brings up her love for a future Movie Torture, "Nothing but Trouble" They talk about how great John Candy was and MTD reminds them that "Plains Trains and Automobiles" is a classic. They rank the fat guys which includes John Candy, Chris Farley and Kevin James. They also again wonder why people write reviews for a movie that is almost 40 years old.

He and his niece butt heads a lot, but who can blame any high schooler for being annoyed by their uncle and his noxious, back-firing car.Remember to join our Discord for movie nights and further podcast discussions!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/the-other-half/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
