Thor's Hour Of Thunder

We are joined this week by DØUBLE IDENTITY and The Final Girls Podcast. For more 17 fun times, check out 822: 1776 (1972). Coming up next time on a very special ThorsDAY bonus, the pantheon performed a LIVE reading of the X-Files episode: Bad Blood.  

"This totally counts guys for week 16. This is 100% allowed under the dumb rules that totally exist that we're following. If you don't like it, name 16 movies with 16 in the title. See, you can't. So sit down, shut up, and listen to Thor and the gang talk about movies that are one up from meh. Also tell 16 people about us. And do 16 push ups. Do it; we'll know if you didn't. Go on, you can do it." ~ Old Tomato Face, the brains behind the year of numbers. Next week will be 17 Again (2009).

We have finally made it to week 10, only being briefly interupted by calendar shenanigans and Klingons. Special guests this week include Jessica from GoFugYourself, Sarah from Final Girls Podcast, and Bates Motel. For more 10 topics, check out 724: Top Ten of the 2010s & 917: 2010: The Year We Make Contact (1984).

For more Stephen King adaptations, check out 914: Firestarter (2022), 915: Firestarter (1984), & 936: The Night Flier (1997). Next time, we use the wayback machine to go to week ten, with 10 Things I Hate About You (1999).

Here is the version we watched on YouTube with the red/blue to help see the ghosts. There are many sources out there to purchase red/blue glasses. Rob from Bardertown Video is back to cover this classic flick. For more 13ness, check out 730: Apollo 13 & 750: 13th. Next week, we resume our numbers year with 1408 (2007).

We spend a lot more time discussing the musical version of 12 Angry Men and musicals in general than we did this movie. McFly kept it in so it wouldn't be too short an episode. For more on the number 12, check out 971: 12 Monkeys (1995). Our unlucky number 13 topic will be 13 Ghosts (1960)  

Thor and Heimdall discuss important Klingon matters, like how did they invent space travel and achieve warp drives while drunk fighting each other? Thor brings the Irish heritage (so basically Earth Klingons) and Heimdall brings deep Trek lore from print media and the various canon shows. Special song by Wesley Johnson. We will resume our year of "Oops All Numbers" with 12 Angry Men, the 1997 TV Movie.

For you lunar nuts, you may also like episodes 680: Moon Landing 50th Anniversary and 730: Apollo 13. If you celebrate elevenses, you may also enjoy 1111: Records Titled 11:11 or 1111. We discuss modern space news, including the launch of Artemis II, and Scarlet Witch found their crew menu. The next topic will be a Star Trek Saint Patrick's Day Special!

Due to scheduling conflicts, the podcast has swapped number weeks 10 and 15. Who knows what will happen when we run out of fingers and toes to count to those high numbers. If you like topics containing 15, you may also like Episode 1107: Top 15 Grossing Movies of the 1980s. We also reference 219: The World is not Enough (1999). Next week will be Apollo 11, the 2019 Documentary.

Content warning for the real history of America's institutionalisation of the mentally ill. Mr. Monopoly provides humor in legal advice. Doctrette of Horror is back to provide her expertise on mondern metal health practices, and The Last Atlantean discusses the cool audio design. Thor knew a surprising amount about the specific digital film camera used and McFly didn't see the movie but designed the poster based on the discussion. Jack Attack from Tough Luck Cinema closes our discussion with a wonderful dissertation of the piece. Due to scheduling conflicts, the podcast will be swapping number weeks 10 and 15. The next topic will be 1521 (2023).

Mr. Monopoly picked the Val Kilmer film 2:22 from 2008. It was on the podcast calendar and episode spreadsheet as such. Old Tomato Face watched the first 2:22 film he came across, which was from 2017. The pantheon decided to cover both and asked McFly to keep tangents in, as they still couldn't fill an hour. These are their stories... dun dun. You might also like episode 205: You Only Live Twice (1967). Week 3's topic will be Three Amigos (1986).

This movie is not directed by Quentin Tarantino, but we spend a lot of time at the top of episode talking about themes he lifted from various films, including The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. You might also like 930: Rambo: First Blood Part II (1985). Week 2's topic will be 2:22 (2008).

Welcome to Numbers Year. Since January starts in the middle of the week, we get to present our week zero pick. Week 1's topic will be The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974).

After weeks spent training with the Tibetan Numerologists of Appalachia, Old Tomato Face had an idea.   It was an idea so crazy that only the whole pantheon, dedicating an entire year to it, could pull it off. What if, instead of a theme month, there was a theme year? A year based around the numbers of the weeks, from 1 to 52 (and also 0, but not 53). It was an idea so mad that it should have been laughed out of the group chat. Instead, Thor laughed it out of the group chat and straight into your ears. Welcome to Thor's Year of Numbers! The first numbered film will be Zero Effect (1998).
