Man, this is hilarious yet uncomfortable to listen to in 2024. When I heard that Anthony Hopkins sassy robot butler was a headmaster, I instantly assumed that Anthony Hopkins would completely fold at the waist with his ass in the air and become a robot head, with his head shoved into the butler's neck. I would buy that toy.

What did Andrew think of Bumblebee? Personally, I loved it.

tsukiouji

I feel like we all know why Quintessa wants a giant dragon

Kevin C

Wait isn't king Arthur derived from Cornish lore ,like wasn't he trying to repeal the saxon invaders

Tiffany Desjardins

Ok, so I love the Transfomers. I've read every comic book ever made and seen ever episode of ever series. this was gold. thank you for existing I can not breath.

Michelle C

Poor Andrew. 😔

I loved the premise of one of you not seeing the movie and asking questions/having it described to you, and being continually shocked by the absurdity. It made this one of my favorite GAMs ever. I think it'd get old if it happened every time, but I hope you do it again occasionally.

We are missing some of the great 80's movies. I recommend "Cobra", with Sylvester Stallone.

You guys should do Battleship - a Michael Bay produced film that is actually (in context) a big F You to Bay by the Director. While still being a terrible Michael Bay action flick.

Josh Carter

great episode. wondering why youdidnt mention the shit scientist who didnt want to rely on magic and was a cunt

jessica

I haven't heard Blödsinn in years. Thanks for bringing me back to my childhood. But did your Mutti always throw Na Yah at you?

Joseph Kubal

I agree. When you get that pure shock of how dumb something is....

Patreon goal! Andrew buys back all his toys.

I like it better when Noah watches the movie. It's weird being critical of it if you haven't seen it.

You'd feel weightless inside the spinning thingy, because you're pulled in all directions equally. But unless it's in free fall, you'd feel the effect of Earth's gravity. Which is a lot of gravity.

So, I feel like we've been building to this for a long time and it's finally arrived: in this episode Eli has gone full 'Patton Oswalt,' and I couldn't have enjoyed it more. Thank you, gentlemen!

AceofSpace

Ooh ooh! Nitpick time! Haven't seen the movie so I don't know how it goes down exactly, but the whole "no gravity inside a thing" is actually true. It's tough to explain the math and physics behind it exactly, but when taking measurements *inside* an object that creates a field (like gravity or electromagnetism), no field effects are felt. Hypothetically, if there Earth were hollow inside you wouldn't feel any gravity inside of it. Cybertron getting so close to the Earth is fucking stupid though. Loved Andrew crunching the numbers.

Mr Pudifoot

How did Eli missing commenting on the fact that Marky Mark threaten to punch a kid in the face?

James Russell

"No, but there's good robotic excretion in the scene" could be the single best sentence ever said on GAM.

Sam Schwartz

Bullshit. None of this happened. You guys are liars. This isn't a real thing.

Andrew Campbell

I really liked having one person who hasn't watched the movie. I wouldn't be opposed to making it a regular thing

Chad T

Thank you for this episode. it was a welcome distraction from the world.

Sarah Fullerton

I really like the flow when two of you explain to one of you. Maybe try it with some of the regular GAM .

Hey Eli... If Anthony Hopkins' role here made you sad, go look up who played Unicron in the 1986 Transformers film.

yokailover

One movie that must get the GAM bonus treatment: Starcrash

EffDee

Hooray for having Andrew on this! Just one correction Andrew: Wreck-Gar was voiced by Eric Idle of Monty Python. ;)

Adorable Bastard

You made a joke about the correct name of a 6-horned Unicron; Uni is from Latin, so I believe he would actually be called Sexicron. Not to be confused with SexyCon, which is the local annual orgy.

Edgar Almanza

listening to this at work in my first hour to wake up with laughs, also Please have Andrew on more episodes! He's hilarious

Robyn

I LOVED that you had Andrew on this one. Hearing him geek out over Transformers was priceless.

This was quite literally a wish come true so I'm gonna throw this out there for sometime in the future: Suicide Squad

Christine Garam

Guys you have to watch and eventually do "The Circle". Super mainstream, so many best at being the worsts and such a conflated and absurd plot that it's just up your alley. That movie would have been better WITH Markey Mark. That's how sad it was.

Tyler

Man, everybody butchers "das Boot". Quit working so hard. It's pronounced just like "boat". I'm having flashbacks of watching Beerfest in college. "'Boot' is 'Stiefel' and its feminine! Kompletter Blödsinn!

Mark Siefert

"Me, Grimlock, resent portrayl in these movies!"

Now, now... the Roman Empire was a multicultural society. Hadrian's wall was manned by Numidians. Several of the later emperors were non-Europeans.

Thomas J Wood

Five words: The films of Neil Breen.

I feel so close to Andrew right now. I'm a (non-practicing) lawyer and a Transformers G1 was a huge part of my early childhood.

Joseph Kubal

Thank you, needed this tonight. But I feel you sometimes need to watch like good bad moves. You need to find the secular "Blood Freak", something that is not such a slog to get through.
