Blank Check with Griffin and David Podcast • Page 42

127 Hours is one of my favorite episodes in such a long time. Sean Clements is hilarious! Funniest episode I can remember.

 

i still subscribe to the flagrant ones, those guys are extremely talented

 

But do they ever drop the act?

 

Full disclosure - I have never seen Billy Lynn's Halftime Walk (no point, I can't watch it in it's intended HFR) However, JD Amato goes into a deep dive on the technology of the cameras used to film that movie, and pulls off the most incredible comedic bit in the show's history. I will not spoil it here, because when it happens, it feels like a magic trick pulled on both us the listeners and the hosts

 

I just watched The Village and would like to double down on my take!

 

The Village rules.

 

Is there a version of Trio out there with subtitles that are remotely comprehensible? I got 10 minutes into the one on Youtube and it was like reading a mad lib.

 

I believe there is a newly surfaced HD version out there. I remember seeing it linked on the blankie Reddit.

 

Yeah, I went to look there but it's closed for the Reddit protest. Good to know there's a better version out there though.

 

Next mini has a bunch of movies that are streaming nowhere legally.

 

the boys really going to be dropping 78.92 a movie on standard def dvds + shipping

 

I love keeping up with the pod but seeing that I can’t track down almost all the movies this series is a big bummer.

 

The first two are on Internet Archive and YouTube (granted with pretty bad subtitles), Oldboy is currently unavailable since it’s getting re-released in August, and Cyborg is nowhere in sight. But the rest are fairly available. JSA is on Tubi right now, Mr. Vengeance, Lady Vengeance, and Decision to Leave are on MUBI, Handmaiden is an Amazon Original, and the rest are rentable in all the usual locations

 

The good version of Trio has hit YouTube.

 

Sympathy for Mr. Vengeance is on the Criterion Channel until 6/30

 

Here’s The Moon Is… The Sun’s Dream

 

Joint Security Area is free with ads on tubi

 

Hadn’t heard of the guest on this week’s episode but she’s great! Makes up for the fact that there was absolutely no way to watch this movie

 

i’m a week behind, what do we think David said (about T Swift??) at the end of the Stoker ep?

 

It’s official

 

Oh hell yeah. This must mean the Doughboys are doing “Se7en” since they didn’t cover it on Maynk.

 

Huge one

 

Haven’t listened to any of the mini’s in months, excited for this one

 

Should be a fun one. It’ll be nice to not have any “homework” (for the main feed at least) for a few months.

 

Yeah. I'm a couple movies behind on Park, but this mini has been a great excuse for me to dive deeper into this filmography. Fincher will be nice and easy since I think I only have 2 blindspots total
