S12 Ep604: Junior (Live in Asheville)

Author: WHM Entertainment April 12, 2022 Duration: 1:33:18

Recorded 11.19.21 at the historic Orange Peel in Asheville, North Carolina

On this week's episode, the guys are live in Asheville, NC chatting about the outrageous Arnold & Danny "family" comedy, Junior! Why is Danny DeVito's fertility clinic simply named "The Fertility Clinic"? Is Arnold reading medical dialogue off of clipboards? Why is this ex-wife just popping in like Kramer? What business is this of Frank Langella's at all? And have two actors had less chemistry together than Arnold and Emma? PLUS: Danny DeVito produces and stars in a series of JOI videos! 

Junior stars Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny DeVito, Emma Thompson, Frank Langella, Pamela Reed, Aida Turturro, James Eckhouse, and Christopher Meloni; directed by Ivan Reitman. 

Catch the guys later this month when they play Boston, D.C., and Philly!

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.
