Welcome to Movie Mandates, a review show in which sibling cinephiles Andrew and Keleigh force each other to watch movies according to a monthly theme! This month we're celebrating The Streisand Effect and we're kicking off the festivities with my mandated movie: Barbara Streisand's lauded throwback to the screwball comedies of the 40s, WHAT'S UP, DOC? I'd heard this was a classic. I'd heard this was hilarious. I'd heard this was eminently quotable. But why did no one tell me this has one of the best vehicular chases ever committed to film?!!! 0:00 - Trivial Trivia 15:57 - What's Up, Doc? review 58:50 - Next episode's mandated movie We'll be back in two weeks with another mandated movie. If you'd like to watch it, click here to find where it's streaming or available to rent. If you'd like to watch the video version of Movie Mandates, you can do so on YouTube. Alternatively, you can listen to and audio-only version on iTunes. New episodes of Movie Mandates drop on the first and third Wednesday of every month!

They're Bad. Not Power Glove bad. Bad bad. 0:00 - I beat Suikoden II and I haven't been that disappointed in an ending since Bride of Chucky in 1998 19:23 - I'm a film buff but YouTube movie trailer thumbnails are so bad that I find myself watching less and less trailers If you missed Saturday’s live broadcast of Molehill Mountain, you can watch the video replay on YouTube. Alternatively, you can catch audio versions of the show on iTunes. Molehill Mountain streams live at 7p PST every Saturday night! Credits: Molehill Mountain is hosted by Andrew Eisen.

Chat Transcript: 6:59 PM@Rainaharperrr 7:01 PM@RainaharperrrOoh fun 7:03 PM@RainaharperrrSame with me and Hereditary! 7:06 PM@RainaharperrrActually a better example from my movie experiences is Ethan Coen’s Honey Don’t from last year 7:08 PM@addictedtochaos2If you want to avoid games that drop the ball, then never play Star Ocean: Till The End Of Time. 7:14 PM@RainaharperrrOh wow 7:16 PM@RainaharperrrYep brains do that 7:17 PM@jaredknisely6213did you get the good ending? 7:19 PM@SheekagoHey Andrew et all 7:22 PM@SheekagoIs there a movie named "The"? That would be the worst title 7:22 PM@RainaharperrrYeah I like putting a lot of fun/revealing details in thumbnails 7:23 PM@addictedtochaos2It is Brendan Fraser, playing Eisenhower I believe. 7:24 PM@addictedtochaos2It is about D Day 7:24 PM@SheekagoMaybe he's in the middle of a battlefield and he's concerned because he feels the pressure in his bladder? 7:24 PM@RainaharperrrOrnithopters! 7:27 PM@SheekagoHe's not wearing anything to define him as Robin Hood. Maybe he's looking at Robin's corpse? 7:28 PM@SheekagoAt least we know it's about a dog. 7:28 PM@SheekagoOh no, are they going to abandon the dog in a field? 7:29 PM@SheekagoIt's about the game Hungry hungry Hippo? 7:29 PM@RainaharperrrI know what it is hehe 7:30 PM@SheekagoThe narrator saw a guy fall in the water and the hippos all rushed forward to eat him? Tearing him limb from limb? 7:30 PM@jaredknisely621328 and its a game about stealing marbles 7:30 PM@addictedtochaos2I’m more surprised that the Masters of the Universe movie doesn’t look awful. 7:32 PM@SheekagoIt looks like it's inspired by Who framed Roger Rabbit? 7:35 PM@SheekagoThey might all be AI generated 7:37 PM@SheekagoI thought it was Luke on a speeder in Endor 7:38 PM@RainaharperrrGreat job making the thing you want us to focus on be blended with the background 7:40 PM@SheekagoObsession sounds like a perfume name 7:42 PM@RainaharperrrWow this is the worst one so far 7:42 PM@SheekagoThe sequel will be called. 7:42 PM@SheekagoSugar II: Diabetes 7:43 PM@RainaharperrrAt least there’s some medieval garb here 7:43 PM@addictedtochaos2That is a spin off of the Big Bang Theory. 7:44 PM@SheekagoStewie from Family Guy all grown up 7:46 PM@SheekagoIt's about a guy who was discharged from the military and went bowling. He bowled a 300 game. 7:51 PM@SheekagoThere's a thumbnail of an animated mountain and two moles. One if jumping off and the other one is at the base. The name "Molehill Mountain" doesn't tell me anything. Maybe it's about moles? 7:52 PM@SheekagoResident Evil is about Doctor Evil from Austin Powers. It goes back and shows when he did his residency? 7:53 PM@jaredknisely6213the title is based on a phrase 7:54 PM@RainaharperrrWOW that title text is impossible to read. 7:54 PM@RainaharperrrOn the Hunger Games one 7:54 PM@SheekagoD(e)ad? Their dad is dead? 7:57 PM@addictedtochaos2That was Save The Last Dance with Julia Stiles 7:57 PM@SheekagoThe flies are on the kid? Showing that he's dead? 8:05 PM@SheekagoSpa Weekend is the best thumbnail so far 8:06 PM@SheekagoThe barn is like the wardrobe in "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" There's a field inside with a magical tree miles away, inside the barn. 8:07 PM@jaredknisely6213hard to judge an arc based show on 5 eps 8:09 PM@SheekagoRyu is pronounced Ree-Ooh I believe 8:10 PM@SheekagoNo Ooo as in Ooo I mseed up 8:10 PM@jaredknisely6213i didnt like the characters so i stopped watching... 8:12 PM@jaredknisely6213i find it odd that you like trails and not frieren 8:16 PM@jaredknisely6213 see a correlation between you being single and not liking frieren 8:20 PM@jaredknisely6213was trying to make a joke about fern being a good female and you not getting it and tying it 8:20 PM@jaredknisely6213to you mostly not getting women aka being single 8:22 PM@jaredknisely6213mabye its just not a good joke 8:23 PM@jaredknisely6213hard to convey via typing
