Mr. Monopoly picked the Val Kilmer film 2:22 from 2008. It was on the podcast calendar and episode spreadsheet as such. Old Tomato Face watched the first 2:22 film he came across, which was from 2017. The pantheon decided to cover both and asked McFly to keep tangents in, as they still couldn't fill an hour. These are their stories... dun dun. You might also like episode 205: You Only Live Twice (...

This movie is not directed by Quentin Tarantino, but we spend a lot of time at the top of episode talking about themes he lifted from various films, including The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. You might also like  930: Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985) . Week 2's topic will be 2:22 (2008) or 2:22 (2017), there may have been some confusion in the group.

Welcome to Numbers Year. Since January starts in the middle of the week, we get to present our week zero pick. Week 1's topic will be The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974).

After weeks spent training with the Tibetan Numerologists of Appalachia, Old Tomato Face had an idea.   It was an idea so crazy that only the whole pantheon, dedicating an entire year to it, could pull it off. What if, instead of a theme month, there was a theme year? A year based around the numbers of the weeks, from 1 to 52 (and also 0, but not 53). It was an idea so mad that it should have been...

If you want to play along at home, here are the anime opens that Thor watched and tried to guess the plot: 1.  Tokyo Ghoul   2.  アニメ『極主夫道』主題歌・打首獄門同好会「シュフノミチ」  (we suggest you turn off subtitles beforehand as it gives it away) 3.

Tori's pick for Village of the Damaged month is so scary, that she didn't even show up to review it. She would also probably be terrified of our related episodes: 587: The Wiz , 655: Return to Oz  and 1060: Muppets Wizard of Oz . Next week is episode 1100 and we decided to celebrate with a movie that NOBODY was prepared for, Batman Returns!

Welcome to Thor's newest month theme, Village of the Damaged (movies you watched too young). Mr. Monopoly describes this as a movie that has moments too scary for kids, but also the viewer can be asleep the entire time. McFly was scared by this movie at 30 years old, and was actually asleep for most of the talking scenes. We compare this to 768: Alien (1979) and  948: Communion (1989) . Next week'...

This concludes our Monster Mash of Monster TV Episodes. Was man the monster all along? Yes, yes he was. October will continue Thor's Long Halloween with a new month called "Village of the Damaged", beginning with Fire in the Sky (1993).

"Two idiots on Elliot" ~ Mr. Monopoly's exact desciption. Thor and Mr. Monopoly showed up to a recording an hour early and made their own THORSday bonus episode. They reference 1035: Cats (2019) many times. Next week will be the regularly scheduled final monster of the week discussion about Baywatch Nights: S2 E6 "The Cabin".

From the Wikipedia page: The series, described as "a Twilight Zone for kids", centers on the kind of myths and legends that are told as scary campfire or bedtime stories. Every episode always starts with and finishes with the phrase: "This is a true story, and it happened to a friend of a friend of mine." and "Just because they never happened, doesn't mean they ain't true."  Tune in THORsday for a...
