S8 Ep325: Episode 325 - The Fan

Author: WHM Entertainment November 14, 2017 Duration: 1:41:55

On this week's episode, the blessed month of Snipesgiving rolls on with Tony Scott's 1996 baseball thriller, The Fan! What's with everyone demanding Bobby Rayburn hit them a home run? Did anyone check the lyrics in the song choices during shots of child actors? And who wouldn't have a security team on hand when firing this total lunatic knife salesman? PLUS: Andrew hears whispers on the film's soundtrack that may or may not be telling him to kill!

Be sure to continue the Snipesgiving festivities this Saturday night at our final east coast tour date for quite some time: Talking Blade: Trinity at The Bell House—part of the Brooklyn Podcast Festival! Tickets here!

The Fan stars Wesley Snipes, Robert De Niro, Ellen Barkin, John Leguizamo, Benicio Del Toro, Chris Mulkey, Patti D'Arbanville, and Kurt Fuller; directed by Tony Scott.

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.
