S02E11 - Clash-ups

Published: Nov. 11, 2018, noon

This week’s theme is getting your peanut butter in my chocolate. We start with The Seven-Per-Cent Solution (1976), written by Holmes superfan Nicholas Meyer, with Dr. Sigmund Freud going toe-to-toe with Sherlock Holmes - Together, they fight crime! Next up is a gang of plucky American kids against the Universal Monsters roster in The Monster Squad (1987) from a co-script by Shane Black. Lastly we have Europe poised on the brink of war and only fictional characters can save us - assemble The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen (2003), full speed ahead and damn the anachronisms! Also: Joe eats a cookie. Art Nouveau. Best Bonds. A mental erection for Baroness Bomburst. A very particular set of skills. Albanian scapegoats from Wag the Dog (1997). Extra credit: Time After Time (1979). Tom Woodruff Jr. vs. Doug Jones. Alucard. #monsterfuckers and Mad Titan Dong. The Mummy (2017), sans dub. Anno Dracula. Fantomas vs. The Phantom. Melinda Gebbie. Penny Dreadful (2014 - 2016). We play a game of “Quis miscuit ipsos miscuites?”
