Back in Summer 2018 I had heart surgery and the night before I had my surgery I watched your movie reviews for comfort. Brought me a lot of joy at a time when I was scared. Been watching this channel since I found Chad Vader when I was about 11 and I love this channel so much. :))
It's a testament to how good the show is just how seamlessly it was to go back to no masks I honestly didn't realize it till Matt pointed out Craig eating snacks. Thanks for making this show!
I don't know why but ever since the Left Behind episode my Nic Cage impression has been reduced to me imitating Matt Sloan saying, "Just going to get some strange on the plane,"
Thank you for your comment about Devil In the White City! Both stories are interesting, but trying to link them together was really a stretch. Speaking of witches, please review The Love Witch (2016). It would be perfect for your format.
Great episode! Your comment about The Big Bang Theory is similar to what I thought of the show. I once read an article that stated that all the jokes in that show were of the "laugh at me because I'm doing something nerdy" and not, " laugh with me because I'm doing something funny". It really changed how I saw the show. I couldn't watch it anymore.
Oh guys you’ve awoken an ancient memory with this one. I remember going to see it theaters in middle school! A great crummy movie to laugh at with pals(10 years is ancient when you’re in your 20s)
I loved this because it was a buddy cop film set in medieval times. Does it matter it's not accurate? Have buddy cop movies EVER been accurate? No.. so grab a flagon and enjoy. It's a fun ride for the banter. Great review.
I thought you were going to watch the 1972 George Romero movie Season of the Witch (aka. Hungry Wives). That goes with the Donovan album in the background.
Funny you mentioning "Gone in 60 Seconds"; as I just watched the HB Halicki original. You can really tell it was directed by a stunt driver as those were the best things in the movie. Also, that final car chase was an incredibly brave choice. While there were some other interesting ideas, they were not really explored, and sometimes instantly forgotten. It may seem weird, but I am kind of glad that it got remade.
Have you guys seen Steven Soderbergh's psychological horror thriller Unsane (2018) starring Claire Foy? Soderbergh shot it on his iphone and it looks neat. Claire Foy is amazing as always.
The mention of Dr. Doolittle being too long for the show makes me long for some sort of double-length special episode where they watch a really long movie or even a movie and it's sequel. Maybe as a series finale whenever that happens? Or for the end of season 10? Unfortunately, you'd be hard-pressed to justify the massive increase in production time for such an episode.
Way back in the mid-1980s my roommate and I rented--on Betamax tape from an Erol's Video in Columbia, MD--an obscure indy film called, I'm fairly sure, 'Red Rock West'. I don't remember much about it other than the title and that it was a western with two protaganists in a wilderness and the plot may have been an allegory about same-sex attraction. I have wanted to see it again for a long time, or at least find out more about it, but by the time the internet was developed enough to search for info, the Nicolas Cage film was already current, and completely overwhelmed any trace of the earlier film. It's not in IMDb or the Library of Congress, and I have no idea who directed or acted in it. Titles aren't subject to copyright and can be freely reused, so I'm left with asking old folks if they remember ever seeing anything about it.
At this point either Cristopher Lee's family needs to become a sponsor of your show, or you need to issue a restraining order because that man will not leave you guys alone!
This is a really good episode, I am always comforted when I come back to watch this show. Keep up the good shit.(also never knew where fortnight derived from despite growing up knowing it was two weeks)
Okay, not going to lie, I thought this was going to be Halloween III: Season of the Witch. Just a teensy bit disappointed its not, because boy oh boy is that movie bonkers.
Seen It: have you guys seen any of the movies in the made-for-television series 'American Playhouse'? The better known entries include The Thin Blue Line, Stand and Deliver, and The Killing Floor (directed by Bill Duke!). Glad to see you again, unmasked and presumably vaccinated (or near to it). Love the show, keep it up.
I've been thinking of Double Features of two movies that seem not to go together but kind of do. Field of Dreams & Signs Elf & Last Christmas 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (& Finding Nemo?) My Niece, Deirdre, came up with: Captain Phillips and Castaway The Mask and How the Grinch Stole Christmas Gone in 60 Seconds and Dude, Where's My Car Deep Blue Sea and Finding Nemo The Burbs and Harry and the Hendersons Now we have Name of the Rose and Season of the Witch!
funny story I have about Wild At Heart. I bought the Blu-ray of it that was released by Shout Factory, but the discs they sent out at release accidentally didn't have music in the menu screen. So they kindly sent everyone who ordered one of these Blu-rays a new copy of the movie! Now I own 2 copies of Wild At Heart
Craig!!!! Next time dye Easter eggs with pieces of colored silk! The eggs come out beautiful and it is WAY less mess. You wrap a raw egg in the cloth and then hard boil it with the cloth on so there's no cups of dye.
It's probably good that the creators of Back to the Future have said that they never want a sequel or reboot to be made. But if a reboot were to be created, I'd want them to travel from present day to the 1980's, and I'd want Nic Cage to be Doc Brown. ... It would probably be terrible. But it could be great.
I liked Weather Man. That is partially due to my fondness for Verbinski's visual style, but mostly for the fact that I love dark comedies about irredeemable assholes. My sense of humor has always been pitch black.
While it might not be the full blown Nic Cage November I was hoping for, I'll take whatever bit of Cage I can get with my favorite pair of basement dwelling movie buffs.
Matt, if you hate book destruction scenes please never watch "The Handmaiden" to maintain your sanity. Saw it today and there is a book annihilation that was so visceral it made my heart hurt. (even though in the context of the movie it is a triumphant moment)
'Ere the other side you see, You must answer me These questions three. C'mon, Matt. You make a "Bring out your dead!" joke but you let the rickety bridge scene pass?
I love this show but I do wonder why Craig is dressed like an 80s New Jersey mob boss in every episode, is it a case of dressing for the job you want not the one you have?
Back in Summer 2018 I had heart surgery and the night before I had my surgery I watched your movie reviews for comfort. Brought me a lot of joy at a time when I was scared. Been watching this channel since I found Chad Vader when I was about 11 and I love this channel so much. :))
To see your faces, I teared up a bit. You guys, I had no idea how much i missed your faces. All tbe best you guys.
Welcome To The Basement returning to normal is such an unbelievably comforting sight.
Why?
@@Piterdeveirs333 It puts me back to a time before Corona virus.
Plus both gentlemen are easy on the eyes.
Ikr they could’ve done it like this many months ago
@@aZeddPrattFilm you don’t know why they did it now. Maybe both guys just got vaccinated and thus only now felt comfortable without masks
@@ABCDyeahyeahyeah If all parties involved are vaccinated there really is no problem with them being indoors without masks.
I was a good five minutes into the episode before I suddenly recognized, "their faces! They're back!"
me too! it wasn’t until they got to the couch that I was like “hey...wait a minute...”
Lol. Same!
I wonder if that one guy will come back now
I just did the same thing haha
@@Piterdeveirs333 It depends on if Matt and Craig drop like flies or not 🤭
Donavan's album in the background is a nice touch.
It's a testament to how good the show is just how seamlessly it was to go back to no masks I honestly didn't realize it till Matt pointed out Craig eating snacks. Thanks for making this show!
Same!
My brain also filled in the gaps this year with the masks, I didn't realize they were maskless until the thumbkiss at the end!
"I want potato skins!" just about got me to spit out my beer.
I don't know why but ever since the Left Behind episode my Nic Cage impression has been reduced to me imitating Matt Sloan saying, "Just going to get some strange on the plane,"
Unison "give me the chicken" was so satisfying.
Ar ar ar!
Never a bad time in the basement. Yet again, I Thank you all.
I saw the title and immediately knew what album cover it was going to be. Nice going Matt *thumb kiss*
I want to say that the good mood that these two are in is infectious, but they're in a good mood because they aren't.
Thank you for your comment about Devil In the White City! Both stories are interesting, but trying to link them together was really a stretch. Speaking of witches, please review The Love Witch (2016). It would be perfect for your format.
Matt's Nicholas Cage impression is a close second to my favorite of his; Gregory Peck. haha
Great episode! Your comment about The Big Bang Theory is similar to what I thought of the show. I once read an article that stated that all the jokes in that show were of the "laugh at me because I'm doing something nerdy" and not, " laugh with me because I'm doing something funny".

Oh guys you’ve awoken an ancient memory with this one. I remember going to see it theaters in middle school! A great crummy movie to laugh at with pals(10 years is ancient when you’re in your 20s)
Alot of people have bad Nick Cage impressions, but I must say, Matt's is immaculate.
My brain had to register the actual faces for a bit.😂
The amount of season 1 references is off the charts
I almost died at "Give me the chicken"
@@claytons8253 I almost died that the movie teed up the chicken line so perfectly.
All the content here, outside of the actual film, is good. Heck. Watching the worst films with you guys is entertaining. This is proof.
I loved this because it was a buddy cop film set in medieval times. Does it matter it's not accurate? Have buddy cop movies EVER been accurate? No.. so grab a flagon and enjoy. It's a fun ride for the banter. Great review.
8:07 Klaus from Umbrella Academy.
I thought you were going to watch the 1972 George Romero movie Season of the Witch (aka. Hungry Wives). That goes with the Donovan album in the background.
Did you say "A priest named Ballsack?" 😂😂😂😂
No, the movie said a priest named Debalzac. It's funnier because it's not intentional
@@Hedgpig that's hilarious. 😂😂😂
Had a lot of fun with this one!
This was a really fun episode! You guys looked like you had a good time making it.
Thumbs up for the revenge of the scribes joke.
I'm sure it goes without saying but just make sure that when you do watch Doctor Dolittle, Matt, you tell us about it.
That's actually a pretty good Nick Cage, Matt..
Too bad Dr. Doolittle won't be on the show! I'd love to see that review.
This is one of your best episodes! Love it, so funny!
Funny you mentioning "Gone in 60 Seconds"; as I just watched the HB Halicki original. You can really tell it was directed by a stunt driver as those were the best things in the movie. Also, that final car chase was an incredibly brave choice. While there were some other interesting ideas, they were not really explored, and sometimes instantly forgotten. It may seem weird, but I am kind of glad that it got remade.
I’m surprised you guys haven’t covered Bruce Willis’ BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS. Unless I’ve missed something, it seems perfect for this show.
Brace yourself for "Doctor Doolittle," Matt.
Have you guys seen Steven Soderbergh's psychological horror thriller Unsane (2018) starring Claire Foy?
Soderbergh shot it on his iphone and it looks neat. Claire Foy is amazing as always.
So glad y’all are still doing this. Thank you!
I loved this movie for some reason
The mention of Dr. Doolittle being too long for the show makes me long for some sort of double-length special episode where they watch a really long movie or even a movie and it's sequel.
Maybe as a series finale whenever that happens? Or for the end of season 10? Unfortunately, you'd be hard-pressed to justify the massive increase in production time for such an episode.
Happy y'all are back
Yeah I feel like the plot of this movie would be a lot more fun as a D&D oneshot than a movie
PLEASE watch Dr Doolittle in two parts! There is an intermission of course. I loved that book, and how Doolittle bribed its way to a best movie nom!
Given Matt's comment about The Weatherman, how about a "Made Me Mad" version of Scene It?
Way back in the mid-1980s my roommate and I rented--on Betamax tape from an Erol's Video in Columbia, MD--an obscure indy film called, I'm fairly sure, 'Red Rock West'. I don't remember much about it other than the title and that it was a western with two protaganists in a wilderness and the plot may have been an allegory about same-sex attraction.

Nicolas Cage looks like the lead singer of Nickelback in this.
Matt's Cage impression is marvelous :)
Kudos for wrangling in a Mega Force reference!
At this point either Cristopher Lee's family needs to become a sponsor of your show, or you need to issue a restraining order because that man will not leave you guys alone!

It’s so great to see your beautiful faces again 😍.
I really enjoyed this obvious heap of cheese. It reminded me of a perfectly nice D&D one shot
Seen It: have you guys seen any of the movies in the made-for-television series 'American Playhouse'? The better known entries include The Thin Blue Line, Stand and Deliver, and The Killing Floor (directed by Bill Duke!).
Glad to see you again, unmasked and presumably vaccinated (or near to it). Love the show, keep it up.
Yes! Finally! Thank you.
This film seems to have surprisingly nice production...
I've been thinking of Double Features of two movies that seem not to go together but kind of do.
Field of Dreams & Signs
Elf & Last Christmas
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (& Finding Nemo?)
My Niece, Deirdre, came up with:
Captain Phillips and Castaway
The Mask and How the Grinch Stole Christmas
Gone in 60 Seconds and Dude, Where's My Car
Deep Blue Sea and Finding Nemo
The Burbs and Harry and the Hendersons
Now we have Name of the Rose and Season of the Witch!
You finally have your movie mate. There was a Name of the Rose joke, you should know, but it was left on the cutting room floor.
Haha! Perhaps it will be 'unboxed'?!
funny story I have about Wild At Heart. I bought the Blu-ray of it that was released by Shout Factory, but the discs they sent out at release accidentally didn't have music in the menu screen. So they kindly sent everyone who ordered one of these Blu-rays a new copy of the movie! Now I own 2 copies of Wild At Heart
Justice!!! Justice for Vampire's Kiss!!!
"the girl is caged" and so is this movie xD
well about 5 minutes in and I’m regretting eating while watching this.
The syphilis on screen diet 🤔
Got to love Sir Christopher Lee's commitment to having that monstrosity on his face.
RIP
Hi, BlameSociety. What do you plan to do next?
Have you guys seen Mom and Dad with Nicholas Cage? I absolutely loved it. Totally original movie and very self aware
fantastic movie
Craig!!!! Next time dye Easter eggs with pieces of colored silk! The eggs come out beautiful and it is WAY less mess. You wrap a raw egg in the cloth and then hard boil it with the cloth on so there's no cups of dye.
Matt does a pretty decent Nic Cage
It might be good, it might be bad... it might be Season of the Witch.
I watch you all so often I didn’t notice the lack of masks till a couple minutes in!
I appreciated the MBI joke myself 😁
23:55 What was that noise? Was Craig still kissing his thumb?
It's probably good that the creators of Back to the Future have said that they never want a sequel or reboot to be made. But if a reboot were to be created, I'd want them to travel from present day to the 1980's, and I'd want Nic Cage to be Doc Brown.
...
It would probably be terrible. But it could be great.
Paas? Like in the dutch for easter?
I may not laugh at Big Bang Theory but I did laugh at your Godzilla review,
Huh. I guess you’re right. He does look like Orson Welles.
If you want to see a legitimately GOOD movie, from the same time, about a similar subject, I would check out Black Death with Sean Bean
that's the movie where travel along the coast of styria .. now look up styria
weather man is great and underrated, that's all i have to say.
wait a minute.... YOU GUY'S ARE MASKLESS!
YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACES ♥️
After Dark, My Sweet
I remember liking the Weather Man but I can't remember why
A Monkey Business & Atlas Institute joke? What's next? References to Broom Street and The Bartell?
Jerkin Store!
You guys should really consider watching Mandy.
First thing I think I remember Claire foy in
I was expecting the Halloween movie.
Hey, who are these mask-less fellows? Nice to see things back to normal, at least on WTTB.
Yes. About time. They are basically family so...
God I love Nicolas cage!
I liked Weather Man. That is partially due to my fondness for Verbinski's visual style, but mostly for the fact that I love dark comedies about irredeemable assholes. My sense of humor has always been pitch black.
Have this joke ever been in a movie or TV show?
*Wolf howls*
Man 1: Wolves
Man 2: Were
Man1 : no just the regular kind
Nick Cage looks like the guy from Nickleback in this movie. Someone had to say it.
While it might not be the full blown Nic Cage November I was hoping for, I'll take whatever bit of Cage I can get with my favorite pair of basement dwelling movie buffs.
I actually really liked The Weather Man
Cage dies and doesn’t end up with the girl because he got too much strange on that plane.
Matt, if you hate book destruction scenes please never watch "The Handmaiden" to maintain your sanity. Saw it today and there is a book annihilation that was so visceral it made my heart hurt. (even though in the context of the movie it is a triumphant moment)
Probably wouldn't enjoy _Fahrenheit 451._
The only Season of The Witch I like is Halloween iii Season of The Witch
nicolas cage is the greatest actor of his generation...
Vampire's Kiss is Cage's favorite personal performance. This movie kind of screwed me up. Kind of a like a specific moment in Super.
what is that record behind Craig at 0:42?
Sunshine Superman by Donovan. Season of the Witch is one of the many fabulous songs on that album.
Craig... you FOOL! It's Hanged, not hung. Tisk tisk.
Recently watched Nicolas Cage's movie Jiu jitsu. Not memorable so I wouldn't recommend. Still need to see The Color out of Space and Mandy.
'Ere the other side you see,
You must answer me
These questions three.
C'mon, Matt. You make a "Bring out your dead!" joke but you let the rickety bridge scene pass?
I can't make every joke.
@@blamesocietyfilms But just think, if you did you'd be a millionaire! Or everyone would hate you because of _those_ jokes
I know, Matt. I still love you though.
I love this show but I do wonder why Craig is dressed like an 80s New Jersey mob boss in every episode, is it a case of dressing for the job you want not the one you have?
New Jersey crime boss? How dare you? I am going for "Long Island Crime Boss."
