Many (though not all) of those are actually harassing paid actors. Thus making Matt Walsh a step down from the average tiktok prankster.

I often joke that Ohio is trying to become the Florida of the north.

Graydon Armstrong

Huh, I was guessing Florida.

Uriah Jackson

That happened in the city where I live. Finally something not bad I can say about living in Ohio.

Hillary Johansen

I guess at least one episode did, she posted it online on her account and there's supposed clips from other episodes, but I'm not sure if they actually exist - I mean, the woman is barely a brainstem, she might have just shot random crap on a camera to make it seem like there were more. It is... to put it mildly, I have had teenagers who dressed like Mike Myers intros Sprockets put together more interesting videos for high school intro to film class 101. Tampon in a teacup seems artistic by comparison.

potato potato also another potato

not too many thankfully, looks like it's currently at $11m total for it's theatrical run. That numbers higher than I'd like, but still quite low.

oh that bullshit actually got made? The guys covered it on skepticrat or scathing when it was initially fundraising around it's pilot, but there hasn't been much news about it since. If it's actually out I'm sure they'll do an episode or two.

Markus Nävergård

who the fuck is Jeremy Jahns?

VermanShane

Yep, you nailed it.

Markus D

Dammit, now I want to know who it is in case I watch that person and somehow missed this... Looking it up my best guess is Jeremy Jahns, who I luckily don't watch anyway, but his comments are filled with chuds going "Why did he get such backlash for reviewing this movie, he's a movie reviewer, duh!" I can't tell if they're all disingenuous or not, but whether they're stupid or assholes, that's not a great bunch to surround yourself with.

Paintmekala

Fuck, I know who it is. Went through the same shit, so grateful for these guys actually breaking down this bullshit

VermanShane

A youtuber who I won't name reviewed this unironically. I will NEVER watch said youtuber again and I can't believe he didn't get more backlash. Although I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Really glad you guys covered this movie.

Hillary Johansen

Has anyone seen the new thing going around on the net? Maybe I"m late to the party, and I'm sorry if I am, but this Maga sitcom - "What's a girl to do?" is being reviewed, and I'm not sure if the guys want to hate themselves that much. Holy hell is it bad.

Vis-a-vis the upcoming Dinesh D'Souza movie Vindicating Trump, I know you guys have only done one of his movies so far, so I don't know if you've been avoiding them (I wouldn't be surprised if there weren't enough material, since the one you did, Death of a Nation, was literally 75+% reused footage from Hillary's America), but I always love your field trip episodes, so I hope you do this one soon!

Kristine VanRaalte

His interview that you described reminds me of people calling into The Atheist Experience and talking to Forrest Valkai. They have no idea how lucky they are to talk to someone so knowledgeable and good at explaining if they were actually calling in to learn something.

Kristine VanRaalte

Every time I try to picture Matt Walsh, he morphs into Don Jr. I would not recognize him if he bumped into me.

James Robbins

How is this movie any different than those tiktok "pranksters" who harrass people for content?

WelcomeToFalse

I like to think that he wore a fake beard over his, er…real…beard, during his Project Veritas bullshit.

Markus D

I feel like you could probably ask for a "black coffee", because the terminology is well-known enough, and nobody will think it's weird unless you do it while staring straight in the waiter's eyes or something.

Markus D

Right? It looks painted on. If we eventually learn that it was fake the whole time, I won't be surprised. Actually, I'll be surprised if it's reliably confirmed to be the opposite.

VK

I mean if you have to ask....

Mark H

Rarely do I appreciate the “…so you don’t have to” as much as this one. Great episode

WelcomeToFalse

With that beard, Matt Walsh always looks like he’s in costume, anyway. Why bother?

Markus D

My political opinion at this point is literally "People who like Matt Walsh? Send them to the gulags." With zero hyperbole. Yes, we will have to build gulags, but it will be for a good cause.

Markus D

My response to being approached like that would probably be something like "Well, I WASN'T, but I'm a bit afraid of you, specifically, NOW."

Markus D

That part confused me, especially since he saw the movie and clearly SAW Robin DiAngelo later on in it, who doesn't look "ethnically ambiguous".

Markus Nävergård

he be lib-curious?

Joshua Reubens

As a Bills fan I'm wondering if I should e upping my pledge as a condolence right now.

Aaron Irvin

I'd buy a "God Awful Movies: I'm Only Here Ironically" shirt

Kate Harris

I’m literally nobody and I have been on multiple morning shows!

Another Craig

Given this and his other 'movies,' plus apparently he went to the Democratic convention in disguise, like Lindell... I really think he's got a liberal cosplay kink

Ghost Walker

I think we have to come up with movies that will make them say uncle. I feel like now it was a direct challenge to us to make them say uncle.

AtomicSquirrel (Evan)

Of course he can say the name of the book. There are just consequences. That’s how overt racism works.

Joseph Misinec

Like come on, Your name is literally God awful movies, anybody will assume this is a podcast about bad movies. That's why you made the pun! Just use it

Off-label Botanist

I was going to suggest a business card but this is better

Kunoku The Proto

I feel that so hard. I’m terrified of all people. Though, walking up to someone who’s chilling by themselves and saying “you’re scared of me, aren’t you” probably isn’t the best way to start that conversation. I can’t think of a good conversation that’s ever started that way.

Jay Voigt

Fuck Matt Walsh.

CarrieBoo

It's really gross how many people think this movie is "good"

Michael McElroy

In the section where the guys are talking about the black man who's only read the Bible, Eli makes a comment about how Walsh must think that the man and Robin DiAngelo are on equal footing because they're both black. Robin DiAngelo is a white woman...

Mockingbird Nation

Bold to imagine he’s seen a show made by a COMMUNIST CHINESE PERSON (sarcasm font)

Markus D

I was thinking "white people aren't the only people who can be racist" but I'm specifically considering like... Japanese people in Japan, when the conversation is about the U.S. Like, if you were a violent colonizer within the last 200 years, you probably count as a racist majority somewhere.

Markus Nävergård

and if ask you just say " no milk, regular coffee"

Markus Nävergård

I would like to sit down and talk to the hosts so much about the topics in this movie because i+d had a ex friend that embodied ALOT of the bad ideas in this movie and i have once hosted such ideas myself when i was younger.

Markus Nävergård

we learn more and more about their past

Denise Huston

Noah was a mascot. I'm sorry, I need to drag this whole enterprise to a stop and get a feature length film about that, literally what???

Amanda McGuirt

Three minutes into this, a Black person came up to me in the park and said "you're scared of me aren't you? You're all scared of us." Like he could hear inside my headphones. Which is a manifestion of everything my social anxiety has ever dreaded, when I'm silently pleading you to understand I'm scared of everybody.

Markus Nävergård

man, i hate folks that wear the punisher symbol and does not understand the punishers character, same for those that think Judge Dredd is a good guy.

CajunRoyalty

If you’re in a diner you just order “coffee”. No reason to get colors involved.

Markus Nävergård

Noah has used the " no one said uncle yet" intro once before

Denise Huston

Sounds like PIAT just needs a uniform for when they have to go to theaters.

Renee Y Bisel

Eli's story about his theater made this one absolutely great! 😆

Cold Material Handler

I guarantee that when Matt Walsh showed up for Race to Dinner, he was imagining the struggle session from Three Body Problem 🇨🇳

Joseph Misinec

Eli Heath, Noah just make merchandise of your goddamn podcast name. God awful movies, And whenever you're going to go to a movie theater and you have to pull something like this out, point to the shirt say this is my goddamn podcast And I am pretty sure it will explain 90% of these fuck ups. Especially with these bigoted bullshits theater experiences

Graydon Armstrong

Oh, thank you for reminding me (again) of the Twisted Tea video!

Markus Nävergård

wow, now i have to be confronted with some lingering bad ideas i´ve had in my life

Mockingbird Nation

I know it hurts you all but I love these reviews. They are so funny and so useful

Krostos

Damn it, wish I had seen this an hour ago cause I gotta go to bed now.

Kevin McGonigle

If you want a good palate cleanser after this shitty movie. You should watch Ryan Grimm gutting Matt when he brings up Haiti. Also fun fact Ryan once punched Jessie Waters for stealing his phone lol https://youtu.be/Pyh3UAxW4NE?si=Lld4UsN5RhbqWQDa
