149: "Uncle No-No's Home For Wayward Kangaroos" - Matilda (1978)

5 time SNL host Elliot Gould is the subject of this week's episode so we watched Matilda from 1978 starring Gould and a guy in a cheap looking kangaroo costume.  A poor immigrant comes to America with a kangaroo (for unknown reasons).  The kangaroo has a penchant for punching people in the face so they do what anyone would do, they partner with a sleazy talent agent and try to get the kangaroo a boxing license so it can compete for the heavyweight title.  There is also a, you guessed it, mafia subplot featuring the guy who played Luca Brasi in The Godfather.  This movie is pretty unwatchable but stupid enough to be bearable.  Sorry for the delay in new episodes, while we've been recording I have been way behind in getting them edited.  Enjoy!
