Big Daddy Dispatch: Mailbag Reject for March
Added 2025-03-20 17:05:44 +0000 UTCHey Folks,
It's that time again...Wherein you ask us a short, direct question to be answered in the Big Daddy Dispatch below and we pick one and answer it! How about that? Not too shabby. Only catch is YOU MUST sign your question with your NAME and WHERE YOU ARE WRITING FROM. That's not too hard, is it?
Can't wait to see what you all ask us!

2025-03-28 07:42:21 +0000 UTCI've been thinking about the LRM lately and I notice that a lot of requested movies and episodes of TV shows make for more difficult conversations than others. Some people seem to make requests that are simply torturous movies for the sake of boring or annoying the hosts and others are deeply serious or emotional things that while high quality don't necessarily make for good comedy content. What makes a good candidate for an LRM submission? Thanks, Geoff from Toronto

2025-03-27 17:54:21 +0000 UTCI have a question for anybody seeing this. There was a movie or show where a guy could leave his body. His body would be 'frozen' till he returned. I think from the 80s. So the question is, anyone know its name? Sorry it's pretty vague.

2025-03-22 19:04:25 +0000 UTCWHM boyz! I believe in buying physical media. Since Best Buy pulled the plug, I’ve been relying on dumb Jeff Bezos and his stupid company for all my 4K disc needs. Fuck that! Where do you all purchase your discs? Care to plug a biz and point us all in their direction? Thanks fellas. Adore the show. Julien from Los Angeles

2025-03-22 19:03:43 +0000 UTCI have a question about the LRM drawing. Do you place every request, even repeats in the hat? Like if you had 1000 total requests(live) and 500 were the same movie, would that be 50% chance or just 1 out of 499 chance?

2025-03-22 18:26:30 +0000 UTCI reconnected with an old friend when we both went to the same screening of Samurai Cop at local theatre a couple of weeks ago. What's the worst movie that's had the best real world impact on your life? Bryn from Perth

2025-03-20 17:28:10 +0000 UTCYou have to plan a triple bill but the three movies you pick have to represent the other three members of the podcast (e.g. Andrew's picks = Eric, Steve, Chris). What movies do you pick and why? Robert from Australia

2025-03-20 17:26:50 +0000 UTCAliens have arrived and offered to gift our planet with free energy, technology to fix climate change, and cures for diseases. However, first they want to be shown one earth movie that successfully persuades them that humanity is worth saving (Yes, I know, this is just a hypothetical). What movie do you pick to show the aliens? Nolan from Gainesville, FL
Nolan
2025-03-20 17:25:59 +0000 UTCHey fellers, I'm a big fan of bad movies with Potential: either the scale was too big for the budget (like Krull) or the ideas are good but the skill is lacking (Kurt Wimmer's catalog.) If you could remake a favorite not-quite-there movie, what would it be? I'll take my response off the air. Eric from Madison, WI.

2025-03-20 17:21:26 +0000 UTCHey WHM gang, I want to know if there's a movie you've covered that any of you have changed your tune on, for better or worse? Like, you did a WHM, but now you love it, or vice versa. Cheers! Steve from Chicago

2025-03-20 17:14:35 +0000 UTCI’m curious about any forays into film making by the gang themselves. I remember hearing Andrew mentioning working on a script or scene, but curious if you guys ever put any productions together or any long-worked on scripts or dream projects I have my own pile of scripts and ideas and test footage I’ve all but given up on.
