Dudes on Movies

231 - Super Mario Bros (1993)

The Dudes warp to what they're told is the Mushroom Kingdom with 1993's Super Mario Bros.  Nintendo screened this film, saw what was done with their iconic game and characters, and left The Movie Business forever.  An extreme reaction, but a fair one.  This movie is really dumb everybody, but now and then that's how we like it.     
Other movies discussed:
Snake Eyes (1998) - Directed by Brian DePalma
Civil War (2024) - Directed by Alex Garland
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
What movies that you looked forward to were the biggest disappointments?

230 - Superbad

The Dudes' fear of separation culminates at a house party in 2007's Superbad. This crude high school comedy set a new standard for the genre, and is considered by many to be one of the best. It also showcases many talents before their rise to fame. So grab your fake ID and be careful who you dance with.

229 - The Menu

The Dudes are presented with tacos that might hold up in court with 2022's The Menu.  Do you despise the wealthy and the pretentious?  Then prepare yourself for roughly 100 minutes of massively creative frontier justice visited on people who are brand-new to consequences.  Do not eat.  Taste, savor, relish.  Then die with those who give.
 
Other movies discussed:
Waking Ned Devine (1998) - Directed by Kirk Jones
Quiz Show (1994) - Directed by Robert Redford
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:

227 - Michael Clayton

The Dudes aren't the guys you kill, they're the guys you buy, with 2007's Michael Clayton.  This well-acted, suspenseful, legal thriller is George Clooney at his smoldering best, while Tilda Swinton and Tom Wilkinson show you why they're two of the best to ever do it.  So curl up with a gripping Fantasy novel, and then irreparably embarrass your colleagues with this modern classic!

225 - The Iron Claw

The Dudes head to the Dallas Territory with 2023's The Iron Claw. The Von Erichs captivated wrestling fans, and the tragedy of them dying so young and so needlessly is an important story that needed to be told.  And while you'll likely cry when you see this film, you'll somehow leave smiling too.  Sing it with us now: "I wanna live that waaaayyyy, forever...."    
 
Other movies discussed:
Little Odessa (1994) - Directed by James Gray
Witness For The Prosecution (1957) - Directed by Billy Wilder
QUESTION OF THE WEEK:
What stories that interest you haven't yet been made into a movie?
