Flop House Movie Minute #11 - Listener Feedback

Dan McCoy

[0:00] And now, the Flophouse Movie Minute.

Elliott Kalan

[0:10] Did I ever tell you about my cyborg movie?

[0:12] I want to make a movie where James Spader and Christopher Walken were cyborg cops.

[0:15] Man, that would have been awesome.

[0:17] Yeah, and the ending is like the end of Hard Boiled.

[0:19] They're punching each other so hard that their skin is ripping and you see the metal underneath.

[0:21] Seriously.

[0:22] But they're in there and it's...

[0:24] Anyway, we can...

Dan McCoy

[0:25] So I wanted to do some listener feedback.

[0:30] We actually have some emails.

[0:32] And if you want to email us, it's theflophousepodcast at gmail.com.

[0:37] But the first one is from Fed, someone that we all know to very new reason.

[0:43] Oh, yeah.

Elliott Kalan

[0:44] He's a good guy.

Dan McCoy

[0:45] Beautiful apartment.

[0:45] And the reason I'm reading it is this is a Flophouse contest entry.

[0:49] But as someone that we know, he is disqualified from actually entering the contest.

[0:55] Really?

Elliott Kalan

[0:55] Yeah, because I feel like it's unfair.

Dan McCoy

[0:57] I guess so.

[0:58] And I talked to Fed.

[0:59] He understands.

[1:00] But he sent in this message.

[1:02] Dear sir or madam, I heard about your contest by listening to the last two episodes of your podcast.

[1:08] It was not surprising to me that you received no entries, mainly because you guys showed no enthusiasm for the contest.

[1:14] And the rules were incomprehensible at best, dangerous at worst.

[1:19] However, since I enjoy your podcast very much, I decided to throw my entry into the proverbial ring.

[1:24] In order to help you grow your listenership and officially comply with some of the vague rules you clarified in the 10,000 BC podcast,

[1:31] I have placed I Enjoy the Flophouse podcast as my I Am status message and will continue to do so for no less than two or three days.

[1:40] Since I have upwards of 30 people signed in and seeing my status messages per day, that's nearly 60 eyeballs.

[1:45] If my calculations are correct, you should get at least one or two new fans at the end of the run.

[1:50] So that's from our friend Fed.

[1:50] Thank you very much, Fed.

[1:52] And I want to mention, Fed hosts a much more successful podcast.

[1:59] I'm sure I'm going to not pronounce this correctly because I am an American and can't pronounce it.

[2:05] An American.

[2:06] Other.

[2:07] Nice grammar.

[2:08] I said an American.

[2:10] You said a American.

[2:11] He does a podcast called Puromac.

[2:16] It's the number one podcast about Apple products in the Spanish-speaking world.

[2:21] So the format is Two Friends Having a Not Always-So-Friendly Discussion of Apple News Products and Tips.

[2:27] Our website address is httpp-p-u-r-o-m-a-c.com.

[2:34] And you can find it on iTunes.

[2:35] It's one of the top ten podcasts across Spain.

[2:38] So if you're bilingual.

[2:39] Wow.

[2:40] And like Mac products.

[2:41] And like Mac products.

[2:43] That's the podcast for you.

[2:44] That sounds good.

Elliott Kalan

[2:45] I had no idea his podcast was that big.

[2:47] Yeah.

[2:47] I know he did it.

[2:48] He's huge in Spain.

Dan McCoy

[2:49] Yeah.

[2:49] Wow.

[2:50] Maybe he should just take over for us.

[2:53] Yeah.

[2:53] And watch movies and make fun of them.

Elliott Kalan

[2:55] Yeah.

[2:56] He's like the Ramones where they, like in New York, they couldn't get a show going.

[2:59] But when they went to South America, they were huge.

[3:01] They were like the Beatles.

[3:03] That's true.

[3:03] Except his in Spain.

[3:04] And he wouldn't do like a stadium show because he'd just talk about Mac products.

[3:08] Yeah.

Dan McCoy

[3:08] They'd be like, oh, the MacBook Air is really light.

[3:11] Well, they love Mac.

[3:12] I'm sure that's the same detailed analysis that he gets into.

[3:15] They love Mac products in Spain, I think.

[3:18] Well, they, you know, it's global.

[3:20] Oh, okay.

[3:21] A guy named Jameson, last name withheld.

[3:24] He writes about our Teen Wolf movie minute.

[3:27] Jameson sounds like a last name.

[3:29] He could be.

[3:30] It could be.

[3:32] Or a whiskey.

[3:33] A delicious whiskey.

[3:35] He says a lot of things.

[3:36] But what I wanted to read was, I remember once watching it in a friend's basement and

[3:40] our attention had turned to something else as the credits rolled in the background.

[3:43] This was before they did the hyperdrive split screen credits thing so you can't read

[3:47] anything.

[3:48] So at one point we kind of glanced back at the TV with the title card scrolling over that

[3:52] locked shot of the bleachers in the big game.

Elliott Kalan

[3:54] I love that.

[3:55] The credits roll over a freeze frame at the end of the movie like it's a TV show.

Dan McCoy

[3:59] And we notice that one of the extras in the scene is sneakily undoing his pants and slowly

[4:04] taking them off during the entire credits.

[4:06] It goes on for a very long time.

[4:09] And they don't edit this out in the TV version either.

[4:11] Now you mentioned this, I think in passing when we did the movie Minute on this.

[4:17] But I actually didn't know what you were talking about.

[4:19] Oh, okay.

[4:20] I didn't realize that there was actually...

Elliott Kalan

[4:21] Yeah, there's an extra in the corner of the screen who whips his dick out.

[4:24] And I guess no one noticed it ever.

[4:26] And the scene is online and readily available.

[4:29] If you look for like Teen Wolf penis, then hopefully that's what you'll find.

[4:34] That's a pretty common thing to search for.

[4:36] Not some horrible...

[4:36] Not fan art.

[4:37] Yes, or not some horrible lycanthropy fetish page.

[4:41] But there's some guy on the side of this frame that no one ever noticed was just taking

[4:46] his penis out in the middle of shooting the movie.

[4:48] And if memory serves correctly, there's a female extra who notices it as he's putting

[4:52] his penis away.

[4:53] And you can see her kind of be shocked and horrified for a second.

Dan McCoy

[4:56] Is it kind of like the ghost in Three Men and a Baby?

Elliott Kalan

[4:59] Well, that's not real.

[5:01] This is a real penis.

[5:02] This is a real...

[5:03] This is not a ghost penis.

[5:04] Or a shadow of something.

[5:06] It could be a penis.

[5:07] Yeah, it's not John Astin having sex with a mummy in The Frighteners.

[5:10] This is a real penis.

[5:11] Oh, okay.

[5:11] That makes sense.

[5:11] That was a ghost penis.

[5:14] But it's like...

[5:15] And I never noticed it.

[5:16] And when I was a kid, I never noticed it.

[5:18] And I didn't know about it until about a year or two ago when someone pointed it out

[5:21] to me.

[5:21] But I watched that movie probably 50 times when I was a kid, at least.

[5:25] And I never noticed the penis being taken out.

Dan McCoy

[5:28] Subconsciously, you did, though.

Elliott Kalan

[5:30] Well, yeah.

[5:30] And that's why I'm gay today.

[5:31] That's why you love the movies so much.

[5:32] That's why I'm gay now.

[5:32] And why I love gay movies and people taking their penises out.

[5:36] Oh, okay.

[5:36] That makes a lot of sense, then.

[5:37] I want to Google Teen Wolf penis now and see what happens.
