The Dude on the Right apologizes for the slight delay in getting this review of “The Incredible Hulk” posted, but, and not saying that the website isn’t that important, a family get-together was at least more important than getting his review of “The Incredible Hulk” posted at an earlier time. Family get-together’s aside, The Dude did like that this version of Hulk played a little more true to the story he remembers, that of the TV series, and that Hulk was only able to leap a few buildings, and not miles, at a single bound.

What’s New? A Movie Review of “The Happening.”
The Dude on the Right decided to try to skip out on some Friday afternoon duties to see “The Happening, “ and he reviews the movie, and he likes it. He likes it because he didn’t try to re-envision “The Sixth Sense,” especially since this is an M. Night Shyamalan flick, but instead engrossed himself into enjoying a campy, kind of “zombie” movie, without a twist that most people want Mr. M. Night to amaze them with. People, get over it, M. Night amazed you with the twist for “The Sixth Sense,” get over it, now he’s just trying to entertain you.
What’s New? A Podcast of: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! “Echoes,” Movies, T-Ball, an Attic, and a Tornado!
They may do their podcast a day late, but The Dude on the Right and Stu Gotz are back for a “Weekend Wrap-Up!” podcast since The Dude got home from his visit to the old country late on Monday, so what better day than to do it than on a Tuesday! They talk about “Kung Fu Panda,” “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan,” kids playing T-Ball, a tornado, a hot attic, Jim Cantore from The Weather Channel, and Mama Gotz hating The Dude. Underneath it all is “Echoes” from Pink Floyd, they also talk about Lake Delton not being a lake anymore, and a dog that got transported a couple of blocks thanks to the same tornado that Jim Cantore warned Stu about.
What’s New? A Movie Review of “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan.”
The Dude on the Right, during his review of “You Don’t Mess With the Zohan,” realized that he loves the potential of many of the recent Adam Sandler movies, but that by the end of those movies, the potential generally falls flat as the jokes get just, too, easy. Guess what, he felt the same thing about the “Zohan” movie, but did like the George Takei cameo.
What’s New? A Podcast of: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! A MySpace Page Change, Catch and Release, and “Sex and the City.”
The fallout from The Dude on the Right changing his MySpace page began after
recording
this episode of "Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up!" podcast, but Stu Gotz
kind of preambles it by setting up The Dude with a music clip, only so that Stu
won’t have to ask a question he has repeatedly tried to get an answer to.
Stu’s weekend was filled with family time and how snagging some "canal-chats"
can be fun, complete with showing the kids that you can throw wounded fish back
in the water, while The Dude saw "Sex and the City" with his BFF, expanded his
culinary horizons, and heard opera at a gospel fest. There is also some
talk of wondering how some people don’t get sued, and Stu ditched The Dude
during part of the podcast in search of some nip-slips from the 2008 MTV Movie
Awards Gold-Carpet broadcast. Such can be Stu Gotz.
What’s New? A Movie Review of “Sex and the City.”
The Dude on the Right went to see “Sex and the City,” and was pretty sure the four dudettes next to him, and the dudette that he took to see the movie, would have been putty in his hands with a well-placed “Ohhh,” that or they would have thought he was gay. He does mention during his review that he liked the movie, but still doesn’t understand women’s fascination with ugly hats.
What’s New? A Podcast of: The World’s Greatest Nephew Needs a Nickname, Some Politics, Some Eddie Murphy, and Some Toilet Talk!
The World’s Greatest Nephew is still in college, so The Dude on the Right might have to send him a few bucks to get a new headset, but even though the audio quality isn’t the greatest, The Dude is happy to be able to do a podcast, through the magic of the internet, with his nephew. The WGN is pretty much tired of politics, but that doesn’t stop The Dude from playing a clip of Father Michael Pfleger, but then they nicely settle into some banter about college, summer, movies, sex, and toilets. What better things are there for an Uncle and his nephew to discuss?
What’s New? A Podcast of: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! The Dude sees “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” and Fireworks, Stu Wonders if He Can Get “Wii Fit.”
Thanks to the internet, Stu and The Dude were able to record their
"Weekend Wrap-Up!" podcast via Skype, and although not the most exciting of
Memorial Day weekends, some things for them were the same, and some things for
them were different. Duh.
Stu is nursing a cold, which kept him keeping up with his Netflix queue, namely
watching "Wild Hogs" and "Cougar Club," while The Dude on the Right ventured
into Chicago to see
"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull," fireworks, and have a
nice dinner. Stu couldn’t go backyard camping with his kids, and The Dude
needed to buy a new filter for his kids. And Stu probably didn’t use his
Wii Fit, while The Dude doesn’t own a Wii.
Now that they know the Skype thing works, there really isn’t an excuse for Stu
and The Dude to not ever do a podcast again.
What’s New? The Dude sees “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” and Fireworks, Stu Wonders if He Can Get “Wii Fit.”
The
Dude on the Right saw
"Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull" with someone who
doesn’t really like bugs, which, because The Dude is weird, actually made the
movie experience bring a bigger smile to his face, but in the end
it’s all about the review, and The Dude does what he does. Stu Gotz,
though, is back doing some typographical reviewing, maybe because his kids might
be a little too young to see the "Crystal Skull" movie, but that doesn’t mean
his family, or at least just him, can’t
get in shape thanks to the Nintendo "Wii Fit." Hopefully Mama
Gotz won’t let Stu shove the thing under the couch to collect dust bunnies.
The Dude saw movies and fireworks, Stu is probably trying to figure out
how to dry a sweater on a "Wii Fit." Such are different weekends.
What’s New? A Podcast of: I Could Have Won $0.40, or even Millions, I’ve Got Too Much Stuff, and Here Comes Indiana Jones!
The Dude on the Right realized, over this weekend, that he has too much stuff, and some of that stuff should have been thrown out years ago, like a phone book from 1995, so for this podcast he laments on seeing a movie he didn’t care that much about, namely “The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian,” how he didn’t win millions, or at least $0.40, and wonders why he still has a hand-held scanner that only scans in black & white. At least he still has a film idea on a 3 1/2″ floppy and his hope that “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull” will be good.
