Since we couldn't find a movie starring Tim Robinson we watched an episode from his only season as an SNL cast member. From Season 38, episode 13 hosted by Justin Bieber. This episode has 2 good sketches and a lot of crap, including one of George's least favorite recurring sketches of all time. For anyone who was under the impression that Justin Bieber would be the next Justin Timberlake, or even the next MC Hammer as far as SNL hosts go, you were wrong. Enjoy! Swaggy!

206: "It Gets Better After The Blackface" - SNL Season 10 Episoide 15 - Hulk Hogan and Mr. T. / Commodores
Happy New Year! We pulled Christopher Guest's name and since we've already watched Almost Heroes and Heartbeeps, we're going back to an actual episode of Saturday Night Live, this one is from Season 10 and it's hosted by Hulk Hogan and Mr. T. to promote the upcoming first WrestleMania. It's a weird episode that George has a fun time with while Ben hates. We get Billy Crystal in blackface, sentimental prison rape, a promotion for Camp Crystal Lake, some guy named Steve Landesberg, a cameo from Rowdy Roddy Piper, Martin Short, and much more. Enjoy!

205: "We Liked Stacey's Boobs" - Hail Ceaser (1994)
Merry Christmas, we brought you the gift of Anthony Michael Hall in his directorial debut Hail Caesar from 1994. Not the Coen Brothers movie, but a movie about a huge jerk who gets everything he wants in life. A wannabe rock star names Julius Caesar (yep, his real name) makes a bet with his girlfriend's father that he can make $100,000 in 6 months, if he loses he can never see his lady love again. This is apparently based on a story by Mark Twain, but I don't remember Robert Downey Jr. in The Prince And The Pauper. We also get Samuel L. Jackson as a mailman, Frank Gorshin doing Clark Gable impressions, needless dutch angles, bat shit crazy performances, horrible music, and a girl with big boobs. Enjoy!

204: "More Farts, Please!" - Daddy Day Camp (2007)
Not since we watched Grand Daddy Day Care have we seen a movie as lazy as Daddy Day Camp. The second in the greatest film trilogy in this galaxy, this film follows Cuba Gooding Jr. (replacing Eddie Murphy and playing the same character) as he forgets everything he learned from the first movie and applies it to running a camp. Even though he establishes in the first scene that he hates camp, he buy a camp in the second scene. Lots of poop, farts, and vomit in this one. It also has a scene with SNL alum Brian Doyle-Murray which is why we watched it for our stupid podcast. Enjoy!

203: "Look To Your Left, Look To Your Right, One Of You Will Eat Poop" - Young Doctors In Love (1982)
And of course, Hector Elizondo appears in Young Doctors In Love. We've covered a few Garry Marshall movies but this is the only one at least one of us enjoyed. A split decision on this as George thinks it's an absurd delight and Ben thinks it's a tonal mess. Starring SNL alum Michael McKean this movie features Taylor Negron selling pills to MacGyver, Hector Elizondo in drag, Dabney Coleman getting punched in the face, a dwarf doctor, nurses with big tits, and Sean Young. Garry Marshall loved him some comic bits, which begs the question, is this what The Other Sister starring Juliette Lewis as a mentally challenged teenager like? We may never know since nobody who has ever been on SNL is in that film. Damn the rules of our podcast! Enjoy!

202: "The Bus To Magic Ninja Island" - Beverly Hills Ninja (1997)
We're watching Beverly Hills Ninja starring SNL alums Chris Farley and Chris Rock. A young baby washes up on the shores of a magical ninja island and defies the laws of nature vs. nurture by growing up to be a big fat guy. The last film released during Chris Farley's lifetime is also Christian Bale's favorite movie, for some reason. We question the mechanics of magic ninja island, Dennis Dugan's directing prowess and the real mystery of this movie, what's the deal with that racist hotel manager and how does he play into all of this. Enjoy!

201: "Chekhov's Magic Sex Bee" - Leonard Part 6 (1987)
So, you know how we watch movies featuring Saturday Night Live cast members? Well, we didn't do that this week. In honor of our 201st episode, Ben picked the movie and he could pick whatever he wanted so we watched Leonard Part 6 starring the world's most prolific rapist Bill Cosby who has never even hosted SNL. Wait a minute, was Joe Don Bakker part of the season 6 cast? Let me check. No. Sadly, Joe Don Bakker has never gotten the call from Lorne. Ah well, it's our bicentennial so we can do whatever the hell we watched. With all that freedom, what did we do? We watched Bill Cosby throw magic hotdogs at shirtless henchmen. We make good decisions. Enjoy!
