Meet Dave

 

The first trailer for “Meet Dave”–the movie written by Bill Corbett and Rob Greenberg that was originally titled “Starship Dave”–is now streaming online at Yahoo Movies. You can also download the trailer in various formats there.

Also, the official web site for the movie is up. But right now all that’s there is a link to the trailer.

Weekend Discussion Thread: Fave Season 2 Host Segments

Sorry this is a bit late this morning: I’m a little under the weather.

Pick your top three host segments of season two, and give us a little explanation as to why.

Mine, in no particular order, are:

From episode 204- CATALINA CAPER: Joel vapor-locks as he remembers the ’60s.
I think it helps to be a certain age to appreciate this one. I’m almost the same age as Joel (a couple of years older) and this is a very funny take on that time period.

From episode 210- KING DINOSAUR: Crow asks “Am I qualified?” Wonderful wonderful writing a Trace just knocks it out of the park.

From episode 213- GODZILLA VS. THE SEA MONSTER: Song: “The Godzilla Genealogy Bop.” There are a lot of songs in season two, but this one is my favorite.

Honorable mention:
From episode 212- GODZILLA VS. MEGALON: Dysfunctional popcorn commercial. This isn’t as funny as it used to be, as the Reddenbacher family have faded from view, but it makes up for that by being incredibly prescient.

Oh and, a new feature: WORST host segment:
From episode 203- JUNGLE GODDESS: The “Bela’s OK Discoveries” infomercial. Infomercials were new then, but had already been parodied to death and there’s really nothing new in this. A total flop.

Those are mine. What are yours?
