Thor's Hour Of Thunder

Mr. Monopoly and Old Tomato Face pitched a new theme, "April showers". Join us all month long as we cover all the Psycho sequels. Check out the various projects of our pantheon members: Old Tomato Face - Bad For Me, examining movies that supposedly make people cry. Chibi - The BRAND NEW Unidentified Flying Obsession. Lebbi - Gamelink is about video game movies and the games behind them. Next week's episode is Psycho III.

Original title: Huang jia shi jie. Presented by only Mr. Monopoly (Bad For Me Podcast) and Ellen Smithee (Letterboxd reviews), so you know it is was witty and an easier edit for McFly. This concludes Expendabelles Month! Have no fear, Thor plans to bring it back next March. Join us for April Showers, discussing the Psycho sequels and 1998 remake.

We visit a James Cameron classic and ask a young first-time viewer how it compares to modern Cameron films. For related episodes of the Alien franchise, check out 768: Alien (1979) and 1004: Predator (1987). The Bad For Me tweet ripping off Cameron's ALIEN$ pitch. The next episode will be Yes, Madam (1985).

"The unknown future rolls toward us. I face it, for the first time, with a sense of hope. Because if a machine, a Terminator, can learn the value of human life, maybe we can too." ~ Sarah Connor Amazing poster art by Cryssy Cheung.

March is Thor's new theme, Expendabelles! Speaking of marches, we definitely discussed how John Williams was not involved in this film. We also reference the TV show, related Warner Brothers properties, and various comic book iterations. The next topic will be Zombeavers (2014). 

NOT the Joe Pesci movie. This concludes VALentines month. Thank you Scarlet Witch for the theme suggestion. Join us in March for Thor's new theme, Expendabelles! We'll be discussing leading ladies, starting with Supergirl (1984).

The gang took it to the DANGER ZONE! We reference the time Thor and Laurence discussed movies in which the theme songs are better than the movies they were written for. Coincidentally they both picked Val Kilmer movies, and the conversation can be found at Tequila Sunrise, episodes 25-27. The last topic in VALentines coverage will be The Super (2017).

This week we are honoring the birthdays of Grandma Thor and Ivy's Mom with The Adventures of the Wilderness Family. Next week we resume our month of Val Kilmer coverage with Top Gun (1986). In the meantime you can check out Alan Smithee's review of Willow.

Scarlett Witch came up with the great theme of VALentines, which is a month showcasing Val Kilmer films. You can check out previous Val Kilmer topics in episodes 956 through 960. The next topic will be The Adventures of the Wilderness Family (1975), which is not a Val Kilmer film but still just as special.

Busty St. Claire and Hootie McBoob are back to discuss Cave Nugs and Himbos.   Check out our friends below for more Brendan Fraser content: Films at First Sight: George of the Jungle Bad For Me: The Whale   Coming up next time, we kick off VALentines Month with Real Genius (1985).

Starring two very different looking guys playing identical twins... no, not that movie. If you love The Muppets, check out our recent live video performance of The Muppet Christmas Carol on YouTube. The next topic will be Encino Man (1992).

Original title: Aguirre, der Zorn Gottes. Not Awkwafina, as Thor's Ask Jeeves searches kept suggesting. The next topic will be The Great Muppet Caper (1981).

"GET TO THE HUBSCHRAUBER!"   The next topic will be Aguirre, the Wrath of God (1972).

"Vengeance blackens the soul, Bruce. I've always feared that you would become that which you fought against. You walk the edge of that abyss every night, but you haven't fallen in and I thank heaven for that." The next topic will be Predator (1987).

"Dead or alive, you're coming with me!" Happy Holidays from Thor's Hour of Thunder.

They said it couldn't be done. They said it shouldn't be done. But Thor didn't listen to the advice of our two lawyers and made 1000 episodes anyway. This episode starts out with us discussing the special milestone, and we jump into Exorcist II at 29:06.

Long before Thor's Hour of Thunder existed as a podcast, the gang performed radio dramas live on college radio. With many new friends collected over a decade, the pantheon performed another LIVE reading. Here is a preview of the madness, and the entire performance of The Muppet Christmas Carol (1992) can be found on YouTube. Old Radio Plays, with sound effects and music and be found here.

We got 999 problems, but an editor ain’t one. McFly made this clip show from over 10 years of nonsense and Scarlet Witch designed the artwork. McFly's Best of Archive, including the radio plays. Here's a list of all topics covered so far. Reach out if you'd like to listen to a classic episode. The next traditional topic will be Exorcist II: The Heretic (1977).
