Episode 308 - Candy or Ritual Hazing
/Tim is back on this episode and we're stark naked and fully armed ready to open fire at anything that's
- Dumb Audiences
- The Decline of Trick or Treating
Spending the last 3 years watching a lot of movies I've come to see that older films on the whole are better than others. Of course you have some real stinkers from the past, but think about how many classic films you love cam from the 80s and 90s, now think how many came from the 2000s, and 2010s? The number is a lot smaller isn't it? The only explanation for this downward slide in the quality of our entertainment is the stupidity of the average movie goer. They'll eat up any slop with enough flashing colors and loud noises, and people like you and me with taste are left dining on ash.
And speaking of Dining on Ash, what the hell happened to Trick or Treating? Maybe it's nostalgia goggles, but I remember as a kid my neighborhood teeming with groups of kids, or families walking house to house all decked out as Spider-Man with a coat gathering as much candy as we could in the few precious hours we had to inhabit the world of our heroes. Today on Hallow's Eve the streets are a ghost town. And why wouldn't they be, when all your neighbors can shit out is an uncarved pumpkin and a table cloth taped to the door I wouldn't trust that house having candy. What's more, my parents are terrible so I just use their amazon to order myself a 10lb box of full sized Zero Bars 3 times a week. Why would I walk to a neighbors house for Bit O'Honey and generic jaw breakers when the candy can come right to my door while I play fortnite.
All that plus the return of a everyone's favorite movie review segment. A suggestion for a new Co-Host. Tim reads the news, and Tab stops a home invasion.
