S8 Ep324: Episode 324 - Rising Sun

Author: WHM Entertainment November 7, 2017 Duration: 1:26:57

On this week's episode, the guys kick off the blessed month of Snipesgiving with the one and only Michael Crichton snooze, Rising Sun! What's with that terrible interrogation framing device they barely use? Why couldn't they find better lines and a stronger subplot for Steve Buscemi? And how in the world do you make us wait a whole eleven minutes before we see us some Wesley Snipes? PLUS: Sean Connery mixes up Jurassic Park dinosaurs with Japanese businessmen!

And to continue the Snipesgiving celebrations, be sure to catch WHM at the Bell House on 11/18 talking about the ridiculous Blade: Trinity! Get your tickets here!

Rising Sun stars Wesley Snipes, Sean Connery, Harvey Keitel, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, Mako, Steve Buscemi, Ray Wise, and Tia Carrere; directed by Philip Kaufman.

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.
