    As we put 2017 to bed, we reflect upon the past year of our show, share some new insights, induct some new Hall of Fame members and watch Wallace and Gromit: A Close Shave. Welcome To The Basement: better than a whole block of Wensleydale cheese.
    In Seen It, we give you a cross-dressing nanny, a poor black child and we examine the beloved Singin' in the Rain for flaws.

    Welcome To The Basement" is a show about watching, discussing and having fun with movies. Matt chooses the movie and Craig doesn't know what it is until the cameras start rolling, so none of the discussion or riffing is planned ahead of time.
    Movie announced on facebook before every new episode. Get the movie and follow along. We do discuss the entire movie, including the ending, so if you want to avoid spoilers, watch the movie first.

      Too bad we didn't run into each other. I needed someone to process that with, and I knew my wife didn't want me to wake her so I could unload my thoughts. A huge part of me just wanted to drive out into the desert for a few hours to decompress.

    As someone who lived in England for a few years I can say that ‘bygone era’ feeling is everywhere over there still.
    Small shops and tons of folks have a homely interest in local food, knitting, gardening, the countryside, and historic preservation. My favorite place on Earth.

    For some reason I kept feeling like this season was different and I didn't understand it until this review. Rather than being a season of hidden gems with a few mainstream "I can't beleive Matt has not seen this" movies, this season was the opposite. I guess I am more excited by the Hard Tickets than I am the Rocketeers.
    Either way, this is probably my favorite show on youtube. I know the show can't go on forever but I have been watching since the beginning and will likely watch until the end. Thanks for this wonderful program.

    I remember my family having this movie on vhs at my grandparents and wanted something to play for my little cousin. I wanted to see it because "Curse of the WereRabbit" had come out earlier but my mother said it was too boring as soon as it got to the knitting shop so I never got to see the rest.
    This was a pleasant end of year episode and nostalgia infused curiosity. Glad to have seen how it ended even in edited form :)

    A note for Craig about the taste of beer: As a man enters his prime years (30ish to 50ish), his palate develops more bitter receptors.
    The upshot being, once you pass 35, give beer another try. You will be pleasantly surprised.

    @DashCamSheffield 6 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Sorry, but outside the UK, yes, not a household name. But in the UK, he was most famous for Last of the Second Wine. BUT YOU COMPLETELY UNDERSOLD HIS CAREER! Seriously, look at his IMDB, his acting career ended in 2010, but STARTED IN 1947 WHEN HE WAS 26!
    He had a varied acting career, such as childrens TV, documentary, original Dr Who and even horror films, including a film that you guys have reviewed! Dracula!

    • @blamesocietyfilms
      @blamesocietyfilms  6 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      I don't think he was in the one that we watched (Horror of Dracula, 1958), at least that's what IMDB says.
      Yes, when we say "not a household name" we mean in the US. We know he's very popular in the UK.

    • @DashCamSheffield
      @DashCamSheffield 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      thanks for the reply. You're right, there's been multiple Dracula films starting Christopher Lee as Dracula. The Horror of Dracula is 1958 (The film was renamed from Dracula to avoid confusion with a 1931 film), but Taste The Blood Of Dracula (with Sallis) is 1970. I simply didn't know that their was so many Dracula films with Lee starring, I thought it was just the one!

    Awesome season, and can't wait until the next year! One gripe - I was not a fan of the dual commentary cuts during the film in this episode. They seemed more like bits that were funny, but contrived to be funny and not as natural as the rest of the season. Either way, this show remains one of my favorites. Keep up the great work!

    I have a different reaction to the baby creature in Eraserhead than most people do. I felt really sorry for it and wanted to protect it. It was so small and helpless and in so much pain. I didn't find the baby scary or gross (well maybe a bit gross) or disturbing. Perhaps I'd have a different opinion if I was older and/or a parent.
