Ep #74: Titanic: The Legend Goes On (2000)

Much like 2000's TITANIC: THE LEGEND GOES ON, we're back with a different length podcast that we're not sure does anything to clarify our discussion. ⁠⁠⁠ ⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠FACEBOOK⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠TIKTOK⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠XWITTER

Podcast! Right ahead! Man the life boats as the class plumbs the depths of animation with TITANIC: THE LEGEND GOES ON. Will these podcasters choose to go down with the ship? It’s sink or swim as we delve into our first animated film. But *not* the first animated retelling of the Titanic with talking animals, if you can believe it. Editor of MERRY LITTLE BATMAN Andy Young joins us for a chat that’s Mucho Gusto. Party Time! ⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠FACEBOOK⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠TIKTOK⁠⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠⁠XWITTER

Your Video High Videoracles have returned. We stare into the 2024 that sicko cinema predicted and jack into the void. What kind of speculative wasteland simulation from outer space will the future force upon us this year? The class picks apart four movies - THROUGH THE TIME BARRIER (1960) / A BOY AND HIS DOG (1975) / HIGHLANDER II: THE QUICKENING (1991) / THE THIRTEENTH FLOOR (1999) - and learn what they know about our world. Spoiler: it sucks. INSTAGRAM TIKTOK FACEBOOK TWITTER

Welcome to HELLGATE (1989)! A place where you can relax and remember the simpler times - doo-wop on the radio, menacing bikers, huge mustaches, the inability to be female and not get objectified in a diner, old-timey attractions that somehow make money...we've got it all! We'd like to thank you for joining us! Another Schlocktober, another head-scratcher. Just the way we like it. Don't forget your pie! ⁠⁠ INSTAGRAM⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠FACEBOOK⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠TIKTOK⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠XWITTER

Like a dog with a bone, we're obsessed with BINGO (1991). This shaggy dog story follows a runaway circus dog that travels America in search of a family. Billed as starring a "sort of canine Macaulay Culkin," this dog and pony show comes straight from the Blockbuster shelves of Jamie's memory. But is this another forgotten childhood gem, or are we barking up the wrong tree? Go Packers! ⁠INSTAGRAM⁠ | ⁠FACEBOOK⁠ | ⁠TIKTOK⁠ | ⁠XWITTER

Coming off their discussion of BINGO, the class ponders why Josh and Jamie can't make money off of their dog. Also we're not done talking about Paul W. S. Anderson. ⁠⁠INSTAGRAM⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠FACEBOOK⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠TIKTOK⁠⁠ | ⁠⁠XWITTER

We may not know anything about astrology, but we know what we like. And that's not knowing anything about astrology. INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK | TIKTOK | XWITTER

If the title means anything, it's the sheer pace with which new concepts are thrown out in SPLIT SECOND (1992). A thematic chopped salad, this dystopian thriller stars Rutger Hauer as a indeterminably psychic cop on the edge chasing a heart-eating serial killer through the flooded streets of London to avenge the death of the partner he cuckolded before he is driven mad by the heartbeat of the clawed rat-mutant sewer dweller that may be the actual Devil with an interest in astrology and scampish sense of humor. What's that? Blood? Coming out of my nose? Huh. INSTAGRAM | TIKTOK | FACEBOOK | TWITTER

The class decides to extend their stay in Dinosaur City a little longer and accidentally lightly neg Tiffanie Poston’s career. Would you believe there were Forry jokes we DIDN'T include in the full episode? ⁠INSTAGRAM⁠ | ⁠FACEBOOK⁠ | ⁠TIKTOK⁠ | ⁠TWITTER

Like a flightless pun-slinging pterosaur, ADVENTURES IN DINOSAUR CITY (1991) comes crawling up from way down in our collective memory holes. Maybe we caught it on the Disney Channel. Maybe it's just another piece of the omnipresent dinosaur media of the 90s. Maybe Forry is just the most Video High friendly character we've watched. But this group of friends who have nothing better to do than dive into a VHS sure did love this Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cribbing mess about a group of friends diving into a VHS. At least we'll always have Tar Town. INSTAGRAM | FACEBOOK | TIKTOK | TWITTER
