The Flop House Movie Minute #34 - Movie Minute Mailbag: The Squeakquel

[0:00] it's the flop house movie minute so guys from time to time we get letters no

[0:10] shit yeah that we do letters from listeners and wait from people I assume

[0:16] so I don't think these are spam bots because they're very specific to our

[0:19] podcast okay maybe they're they're highly advanced max headroom spam bots

[0:24] do they stutter a lot maybe they're gonna take over the world in a

[0:28] Terminator situation I'm scared this podcast mm-hmm well this email is is

[0:36] titled flop flop floppity flop okay and it's from Jerry last name withheld how

[0:44] do you spell that it's spelled j-i-r-i but then there are a bunch of accent

[0:51] marks over it I believe this is our Norwegian fan oh I like that guy and he

[0:58] says hello flop housers congratulations Cole housers for the 50th episode

[1:04] podcasts I follow can be counted on one hand of a distracted lumberjack but you

[1:10] are number one it's a very imaginative way of saying very few besides the

[1:15] obvious high quality of content I really like the sound quality the fact that

[1:19] your voices are very different from each other while being understandable to

[1:22] a foreign barbarian like myself Elliot is very funny and his knowledge can be

[1:27] terrifying oh thank you and by the way spoilers

[1:33] spoiler Stewart waits for a compliment spoilers Stewart sounds very handsome

[1:39] penis sounds large yeah Elliot is the only one single out in this email my new

[1:47] favorite fan once I accidentally kicked my sleeping cat off the bed when

[1:55] laughing poor cat man Ellie doesn't care like saber-toothed in the film X-Men

[2:04] Origins Wolverine yeah well I have a small suggestion that may suck but I am

[2:09] not afraid on the website if you could write the final judgments plainly or in

[2:13] some sort of spoiler tag black text on black background or something I like it

[2:18] I would like to watch some movies before listening to the flop house but would

[2:21] not want to be tortured by the worst of the bad bad ones that honor I leave to

[2:25] you they're all gonna be pretty bad so I think that's a good idea that is a good

[2:29] idea and if I remember it I'll implement it if you don't get shot in

[2:34] the head with an adamantium bullet yeah but what are the odds of that well you

[2:42] wouldn't remember his name I mean you've already been shot yeah he signs off all

[2:51] right that is probably all I wanted to say he's very uncertain yeah listen you

[2:56] know he's terrified by me I'm scared so by may the flop house prosper for many

[3:03] many years to come oh that's very nice yeah so uh like I like to live there in

[3:10] that in that flop house oh in the flop house yuck central well you sort of do

[3:15] oh yeah I guess you mean in Brooklyn yeah pretty soon in Park Slope Brooklyn

[3:20] for all you listeners yeah right next to do it and I gonna be napes yep we're

[3:25] gonna be neighbors that's your four neighbors yeah we're gonna wear a lot of

[3:27] we're gonna have pajama parties yeah no girls allowed well maybe not you have

[3:34] another letter Dan well I mean let me just do for a moment about you guys

[3:39] moving close to Wellington if you will also a good one neighbor yeah it's gonna

[3:45] be good speaking of Brooklyn I was thinking that maybe sometime we should

[3:48] have a flop house meetup where we tell listeners that we will be at a certain

[3:54] idea perhaps

[4:00] Charlene's yeah people should totally go to Charlene's bar yeah and we could we

[4:05] could we get set a time and if there any flop house fans in New York City they

[4:10] can drop by I predict we will be saddened by the turnout and incredibly

[4:18] look at at the worst we will have a delightful evening with each other that's

[4:22] true sure so I'll spend the time just looking at my girl look for that in the

[4:26] future we'll talk about it off air and maybe we'll organize it we'll run

[4:30] something up but um so nice spoiler alert dude yeah well I'm just for sure

[4:35] no yeah that's right it's like a teaser trailer yeah exactly yeah it's like a

[4:39] black screen with Magneto's voice and you're like what's the deal and then it

[4:42] just says summer 2011 so things will change

[4:49] trust no one this is the end of everything trust your body just doing

[4:57] what my body wants this email is titled slash Gordon and it's from right it's

[5:06] it's from Matt Lopez parentheses pseudonym so that's why you didn't

[5:12] withhold the last name why didn't hold it no it's clever he withheld it for me

[5:16] he replaced it is that slash his real name from Guns N' Roses slash Gordon it

[5:24] says I never realized that he doesn't look like a Gordon dear the flop house

[5:27] podcast you've discussed a lot of things other than movies but I can't recall you

[5:32] ever taking talking about slash fiction well we have talked about it but in

[5:36] passing so I mean that's a different podcast that we also do called the slash

[5:41] house where we read out excerpts from our current work and he says in case you

[5:46] aren't familiar usually Harry Potter theme it's a sub it's a subgenre line is

[5:50] today guys I'm reading I'm reading an email you're supposed to do characters

[5:55] not actual people well they're kind of personas I'm in chapter 34 of my Lauer

[5:59] Roker epic anyway Matt Lopez parentheses pseudonym says in case you aren't

[6:06] familiar it's a subgenre fiction a fan fiction which focuses on unlikely

[6:11] romantic slash sexual pairings most famously that of Kirk and Spock now come

[6:17] on all right Matt Lopez parentheses pseudonym let's be clear this is a

[6:22] subgenre of fan fiction focused on homosexual pairings between male

[6:29] fictional characters so get your creepy internet things straight and let me let

[6:35] me be clear although I've heard that referred to as gash before yeah I think

[6:38] that it's probably lesbian I've never heard last fiction that you know you're

[6:42] probably right but uh all right for the thing what about glass fiction which is

[6:47] about Ira Glass and Philip Glass having sex also I want to be on the radio how

[6:51] long you been working on that one just a couple seconds I want to be clear guys I

[6:55] want to be clear to our listeners what's creepy about it is not that it's

[6:59] homosexual that's fine what's creepy about it is that it's fan fiction so but

[7:05] to continue why because fans shouldn't be allowed to write shit yeah come on

[7:08] what about when people start writing flop house slash we're like well Elliot

[7:11] could I you don't know spoilers could I get get on as an aspiring slash fiction

[7:20] writer struggling to break into the biz it seems like it's mostly pro bono work

[7:28] yeah pro boner anyway I'm always looking for inspiration for these unlikely

[7:34] pairings angel and Dracula Simon and Randy Bob Barker and Drew Carey etc that

[7:42] would be called how drew got his job right he said angel and Dracula is that

[7:48] angel angel from the television show angel I assume oh not angel stripper by

[7:53] day by night vampire slash pairing that's way cooler second one that he

[7:59] mentioned Simon and Randy that but that's an American Idol pairing Oh Simon

[8:05] Cowell and Randy Johnson Jackson yeah not not the Diamondbacks pitcher no

[8:10] anyway to finish the email I guess any pitch for the Yankees a little bit if

[8:14] someone were to write slash about two members of the flop house well what pair

[8:19] were you choosing why and I'm gonna I'm gonna I'm gonna tackle this I would say

[8:23] that I would not be in this because I I know I know our audience I know I'm the

[8:28] least popular you know you're the glue that holds it together yeah but the

[8:35] Cyclops you're the who are other unpopular you guys you're the mr.

[8:40] fantastic characters so I think that I think that anyone writing slash fiction

[8:44] would like to see you know Elliot's Elliot's small body enveloped in small

[8:52] body enveloped in Stewart's I think I mean in case well I will I will say

[9:02] only two things one there's no reason it can't be three people yeah one scene and

[9:07] two Stewart and I were just talking about how excited we are to be neighbors

[9:10] and have pajama parties so well I mean we'd have nachos and stuff there like

[9:21] the nachos no nachos like the thing you get it uh like a nachos Belgrano you'd

[9:26] get a Taco Bell it's a fast-food chain it's pretty popular and that's the flop

[9:34] house mailbag everyone okay for listening well if anyone wants to write

[9:39] their own stories and send them in we will be horrified yeah no totally do it

[9:44] do it though that'll be the next contest this is please write the stories and

[9:48] then we will burn our own eyeballs you can make me barf well they don't have

[9:52] to be slash fiction we get the flop house fan fiction contest hmm well

[9:56] people have to write up please no no but that's that's cool but you know yeah I

[10:02] know I can I can handle it if it's slash fiction I can I'm gonna grow man I can

[10:06] handle it but I would prefer just regular fan fiction oh yeah Dan can

[10:10] handle it take it all and there you go that's the start of your story that's

[10:15] it so ladies and gentlemen that's a challenge for you the prize is nothing

[10:29] time for our post-flop house shower Stuart says I've been drinking way too

[10:36] much do you mind if I sleep on your couch I need someone to shampoo my
