Listen "14 - Candyman"

Episode Synopsis

What would YOU have titled the new Candyman movie? Was it confusing to you as well that, despite being in the same continuity, it has the same title as the first one? Andres Serrano is back to guest host on this one. He’d seen only the first one before this one (which mainly continues a thread from the first one). I’ve seen all three and I recap them for him before we dive into our thoughts on this newer one and what it had to say. And of course, we went on some fun tangents, including such topics as guilty pleasure movies and things from the ‘90s that should be brought back! Give this a listen!

Show Notes:

4:15 - Going to Pieces: The Rise and Fall of the Slasher Film. That’s what it was called.

6:05 - Candyman (1992) recap

9:08 - Candyman: Farewell to the Flesh recap

10:30 - Candyman: Day of the Dead recap

13:30 - Candyman (2020) discussion begins.

17:40 - Single-handedly? I should’ve pointed out how fitting that word is.

28:00 - The Lego Movie was the movie that was escaping me.

49:20 - Infinity War but there’s a laugh track

49:40 - Shrek-It Ralph

50:15 - Fresh Guacamole (again)

50:45 - Kandyman article on the TARDIS Wiki. Also, here’s an article called “Some Idiot Defends the Kandy Man.”

59:40 - Men in Black: International is in the same continuity as the original trilogy. But in my head, I thought it was a “reboot” in the sense that it MIB was reinvented with a new cast and such.

59:50 - For some reason, I neglected to mention that the first RoboCop film came out 1987 and that a new one called RoboCop Returns, which will also follow the trend of being a direct follow-up to the first film and ignoring the sequels.

1:00:15 - I also neglected to mention that the first Die Hard movie came out 1988.

1:02:55 - Obviously, there’s the Serenity movie and the Firefly comics.

1:07:10 - The drink was called ‘What the Flock,’ which was made with Blue Chair Bay Rum.
