S11: Episode 547 - The Simpsons Movie (with Henry Gilbert & Bob Mackey)

Author: WHM Entertainment May 11, 2021 Duration: 2:37:59

This week on the show, the long-awaited crossover event is here as Henry Gilbert and Bob Mackey from the great Talking Simpsons podcast are hanging out to chat about the 87-minute missed opportunity, The Simpsons Movie! Why weren't Mr. Burns or Sideshow Bob the villain of the film? If it had to be an Albert Brooks-voiced character, why not Hank Scorpio? Did we really need to see Bart's genitals? And really, who is this movie for? PLUS: Transforming those 7-11s into Kwik-E-Marts was a terrible idea.

The Simpsons Movie stars Dan Castellaneta, Julie Kavner, Nancy Cartwright, Yeardley Smith, Hank Azaria, Harry Shearer, Pamela Hayden, Tress MacNeille, Russi Taylor, Maggie Roswell, and Albert Brooks; directed by David Silverman.

For over a decade, the crew at We Hate Movies has been turning cinematic misfires into comedy gold. Each episode from WHM Entertainment finds a quartet of friends dissecting a famously bad film, from forgotten straight-to-video oddities to big-budget Hollywood disasters. The conversation is less a formal review and more like eavesdropping on the funniest, most brutally honest film debate at a bar, where tangents about obscure actors and baffling plot holes are not just encouraged, they’re the main event. You’ll hear them mercilessly roast wooden dialogue, ill-conceived special effects, and questionable life choices made by characters and filmmakers alike, all while building a surprising affection for these flawed creations. This podcast thrives on the specific joy of tearing apart a terrible movie with your most sarcastic friends, celebrating failure as its own form of entertainment. It’s a consistently hilarious escape for anyone who finds more genuine laughs in a film’s awkward silence or a poorly rendered CGI monster than in a perfectly crafted Oscar winner. The chemistry between the hosts turns each episode into a freewheeling comedic breakdown, making even the most tedious movie an absolute delight to revisit through their critical and deeply silly lens. Tune in for a masterclass in comedic riffing, where the love for cinema is undeniable, even when-or especially when-the movies themselves are not.
