Substandard Show Notes, Episode 1.12 (Twisty M. Night Shyamalan)

Endnotes and digressions from
the latest show:

* Vic mentioned the Mark Russell appearance from The Simpsons. Amazingly enough, he even remembered the correct episode title—”Lisa Goes to Washington.” I can’t find video, but the synopsis is
here.

* Sonny’s giant, spoiler-filled thoughts on Split are
here and you should read them because spoilers should not impact your enjoyment of a film.

* I generally follow the
Robot Chicken view of M. Night Shyamalan twists.

* We mention Vic’s Germanophilia pretty much every week. Here’s a picture of one of the bookshelves in his office.


* In the outtakes we talk about me watching Mad Max: Fury Road on my phone while at the gym in New Hampshire. Here’s the classic
David Lynch pronouncement on such sacrilege. It’s 30 seconds. Go watch it.

* Feel free to email or tweet requests, like the proper ranking of things, like
Robert Little did this week with sci-fi movies. Listener Steve White has already requested
a fight about Val Kilmer movies for next week. I’m your huckleberry.

* As always, you can download the episode here and subscribe to the Substandard on iTunes or on Google Play. And you should go give us a five-star rating. We deserve it.
