The Third Annual November Comedy Challenge Nov 1-30, 2013 **List Thread**


presents

The Third Annual November Comedy Challenge

This thread is for lists only.
For discussion, go to the The Third Annual November Comedy Challenge Discussion Thread.

2011's discussion thread
2011's list thread

2012's discussion thread
2012's list thread

| Challenge starts at dusk October 31st and ends November 30th |

Rules

This Challenge overlaps with two well-established Challenges - October's Horror Challenge and the Holiday Challenge. During the overlapping days, you can receive "double credit" by listing any qualifying items watched for those other two Challenges on your Comedy Challenge list.

It should be self-evident what titles qualify, but if you have questions about something you've never seen, check out its genre classification on IMDB or Allmovie or ask in the discussion thread.

Post your list in this thread. Be as creative or as basic with your list as you want.

You may number (or not number) the items on your list any way you like. However, the preferred method is, as with the Holiday Challenge, any title watched, no matter how long or how short, counts as one list item. This should make it easier to record qualifying items on both lists if you participate in both Challenges.

* - I fudged on this one, but my intentions were noble. I went through my unwatched pile earlier in the month and marked this title as a Criterion title (I googled it to be sure). When I watched it as my last title of the month, I went to double-check and I don't see where it's a Criterion. I did find a google match where it was on someone's Criterion wishlist...maybe that's what I read previously.

Re: The Third Annual November Comedy Challenge Nov 1-30, 2013 **List Thread**

I'm counting in half-hour slots, so for TV episodes anything made to fit a 30 minute slot counts as 0.5, anything made to fit a 60 minute slot counts as 1, etc.

For films, I'm looking at the running time according to IMDB and measuring it to the nearest 15 minute slot. So a film lasting 138 minutes would score 2.5

October 31st - after dusk
Childrens Hospital S03E01: Run, Dr. Lola Spratt, Run score 0.25

                                                                I've already seen the best movie of the month, and it's called Mutant Girls Squad. At Rin's 16th birthday party, she finds out that her father is a mutant. Then, both her parents are killed by nose bullets. Great party! So, everyone wants to kill Rin, the half-mutant. She runs into a filming of the "Nice Guy" tv show. Uh, the nice guys have guns. They want to stuff her and make her the icon of the shopping mall. You know, to revive business. She winds up hooking up with a HILKO girls squad, led by Mr. Kisaragi, who has gone total 80's glam. They're on a mission to KILL ALL HUMANS. Rin is conflicted because she's half-human. I'm all about chicks kicking ass, and this movie delivers it in spades. And "outrageous" doesn't even begin to describe what transpires here! I love their theme song. It's like a female Japanese Cheap Trick. There is also a great origin/side story for Yoshie, as a bonus on the disc. I just watched Helldriver, and it had 3 such stories. I like this trend.

                                                                Ami's brother Yu is killed by a young gang of punks. Local toughs. I dunno, what are they called in Japan? The police want to paint it as a suicide. Yu was being bullied, and Ami wants revenge. Quite frankly, everyone wants revenge in this flick. Ami swears to kill every one of Yu's enemies. She confronts Ryota's parents. Her arm is dipped in batter and fried. You heard me. Turns out Sho is the leader of the gang, and his father is Yakuza. But the mother wears the pants in this family. She's quite the evil bitch. Ami runs into trouble here, is captured, and has her arm cut off. No problem. She has it fit with a machine gun. The Machine Girl plays out fairly serious, but there's some dark comedy here if you're looking for it. It includes outrageous gore, wacky fight sequences, and...

                                                                Kikuyakko is a beautiful geisha, and Yoshie, her sister, has always lived in her shadow. Kikuyakko abuses Yoshie, even punching her in the throat for not addressing her properly. Yoshie is "discovered", however, and forced into a secret geisha squad. She has to battle her sister in a fight to the death as an initiation. The sisters are reconstructed, Kikuyakko with boob guns, and Yoshie with armpit swords. Yoshie becomes a geisha assassin. She ultimately shows sympathy for some people who are looking for their missing family members, ones who happen to have gone into the geisha squad. I could do without the excessive CGI and the sappy ending, but overall this is a fun movie. The biggest surprise for me was the 2-part side-story that accompanies the movie as a dvd extra. It's called Fearsome Geisha Corps Go to Hell, and it's even better than RoboGeisha. Ami the GeishaCop infiltrates Kageno Steel (the front for the geisha squad in the movie) to rescue her brother. Love the opening credit sequence which displays what exactly the squad does with spies.

                                                                Noboru Igushi is one demented individual. He's also my new hero. Keiko can't live up to her father's expectations of a sushi chef. So she runs away from home and takes a job at a resort inn. There, people travel for kilometers around to taste Tsuchida's sushi. Some people from Komatsu Pharmaceutical visit. Keiko confronts Tsuchida, saying his sushi is inferior, and gets into a huge fight with everyone. Such a sushi snob! Fortunately, she's a total ass-kicker, thanks to her dad. Yamada is a bum loitering on their property. He used to be the head of the New Medicine Development department. *insert plot to Re-Animator here* He injects the serum into a squid to take revenge on the corrupt company, and it starts flying around. The squid infects other sushi which leads to schools of sushi attacks. The egg sushi gets bullied(!), then teams up Keiko. The people from the corporation blackmail the girls into taking off their clothes and doing "body sushi". Asami ("Yumi") does The Robot, just like she did in Sukeban Boy (the castle also brings this back in RoboGeisha -- think that was her?). There's plenty of sloppy making out in this movie, never mind the revolting "egg" scene. Clearly, both actors are ready to hurl. As relief, the sushi do an opera! Dead Sushi will make you laugh, and make you sick. That's a winning formula according to me!

                                                                If a girl likes a boy in Japan, it is customary to give him chocolates. Or so this movie states. Mizushima is being bullied by a group of girls to go out with Keiko. Tell me about it. Her father is the vice principal who secretly conducts experiments in the basement with Midori, the hot school nurse, reconstructing and reanimating dead bodies. Also after Mizushima is Monami (Vampire Girl). She gives Mizushima a chocolate full of her blood, and turns him into a half-vampire. Monami kills Keiko, and Midori collects all the best body parts in school so that Mr. Furano (the VP) can reconstruct his daughter into Frankenstein Girl. There's a wrist-cutting rally. You know, for kids. There's also some crazy racist shit, with spears, afros, and blackface, that would certainly be an issue in this country (to say the least). This movie is a little less engaging than the other Japanese horror comedies I've been watching, but equally (if not more) bizarre. I mean, it is a horror-romance, something you don't see every day.

                                                                From old friends Noboru Iguchi and Asami. Sukeban is a boy that likes to mix it up with thugs, but, oddly, looks like a girl. He beats himself up, but it doesn't have an affect on his face. His father wants him to pretend to be a girl, and go to an all-girls school. Sukeban goes, and checks out the Humility club. He can't believe all the half-naked ladies. He (all right, it's Asami, a chick) gets in a fight with Kanko, punches her in the chooch, then farts in her face. Kanko respects Sukeban's fighting technique, and pals up with her. There are encounters with The Half-Naked Women, The Naked Witch (Full Frontal Woman), The Braless Women. I think I sense a pattern. Wait, there's The Monk Women, who are... half-naked. This movie is just an excuse to get girls' clothes off. It's the first movie I've seen where a single bullet will remove a blouse. While there are some goofy fight scenes thrown in, I think you get the idea. Not that I mind, exactly.

                                                                If The Machine Girl is a comedy, then surely Psycho Gothic Lolita is one, too. I'm listing it as a wildcard because imdb says it's action/horror. There are more laughs here than The Machine Girl, believe me. But it does fit into my current favorite genre: Japanese-Female-Ass-Kickers. Yuki wants revenge on the thugs (and thug-ettes) that crucified her mother, and put her father in a wheelchair. Yuki has an arsenal of lethal parasols to dispose of the five baddies. These people are real characters. One is a the mistress of a perverse gambling den. One is a teacher who uses his psychic powers to blow up ladies' skirts. Another likes to gossip on her gun-phone in the midst of a battle. Yuki is adorned with an amazing outfit, making her easy on the eyes while she beats up on them. There is awesome, acrobatic action. Really well done on a seemingly small budget.

                                                                Nov 18

                                                                It seems girls between the ages of 15-17 are dying, and reawakening as "Stacies" (er, zombies). This zombie movie turns into a mushy love story. F-that. And I thought zombies jumped the shark this year with Warm Bodies. I'm sorry, I don't think there should be any "nice" zombie flicks.

                                                                Nov 19

                                                                Ok, now I officially have an issue with imdb. Surely, this is a comedy. It says so right on the box! But imdb has it listed as Action/Sci-Fi. There's no way anyone would take this film seriously. It's yet another revenge story. Daimon is after the Sigma organization for humiliating and killing his father. He has a trusty robot, Zaborgar, made from his dead brother's DNA (he died from man-breast milk... allegedly!). Zaborgar can turn into a motorcycle by just the word. Daimon hooks up with Miss Borg from Sigma for some human on cyborg action. She gets blowed up real good, yet has a cyborg baby. The dvd once again contains short films with the characters from the movie. Love it! These particular shorts are downright silly, but highly enjoyable. dvdtalk gave Karate-Robo Zaborgar zero stars. I thought it was pretty good. Certainly wacky enough to demand your attention.

                                                                Holy 1980s! Tromaville is the toxic waste dumping capital of the world. Melvin is the mop boy at the Tromaville Health Club. He stresses Bozo and his gang. They pull a prank on Melvin that goes awry, sending him headfirst into radioactive chemical waste that happens to be passing through town on a truck. This turns Melvin into a 7-foot tutu-clad monster determined to mash and tear apart all of the evil in town. Bozo, Slug, and their girls are amusingly portrayed as "hit and run" killers. The ladies enjoy comparing Polaroids of their victims. The Toxic Avenger is gleefully offensive and politically incorrect, just the way I like it.

                                                                Mr. Tamura (the "executive koala") works at a pickle company. He may or may not be a murderer. Why the guy is a koala is beyond me, but you kind of feel sorry for the guy. He is trying to partner up with a South Korean firm, while detectives are keeping tabs. It seems like everyone is working against him. Of course, all of the plot just leads up to a big karate fight. I can only put up with so many dream sequences and twists before it becomes ridiculous. And, the koala gets the girl in the end?! WTF did I just watch?

                                                                Looks like another shitty James Franco movie.

                                                                Otto (Emilio Estevez) is a snotty punk rocker who gets roped into the art of car repossession by Bud (Harry Dean Stanton). Wait, isn't everyone named "Ace" in this movie? The repo men, as well as the CIA, are after the same Chevy Malibu, being driven around town by Barry from Storage Wars. As if the $20,000 wasn't incentive enough, the car also carries 4 dead aliens in the trunk. Er, was the $20k put up by the CIA? Otto hooks up with Leila (Olivia Barash), who works at the United Fruitcake Outlet. Uh, it's a front. Only Frog seems to know what really is going on. There's a bunch of social commentary that I could give a shit about, but Repo Man was entertaining enough. I'm being cavalier, of course. 5 stars on the soundtrack! Amazing extras on the Criterion disc!

                                                                I'm a big fan of Girls for reasons I can't exactly put my finger on. Lena Dunham wrote, directed, and starred in this film prior to Girls. Aura (Dunham) has just graduated college, broken up with her longtime boyfriend, and has moved back in with her parents. She's having a rough time adjusting to adult life. Wait, haven't I heard this before? Oh, and she's also attracted to douchy individuals. WTF?! While Girls is certainly more compelling, Tiny Furniture is pretty good, too. People complain it's boring, but really it's a good character-driven piece.

                                                                Nov 27

                                                                I have to wonder, is this for real, or are her parents in on the joke?
                                                                79. Hooker on Campus* (Tiny Furniture short film) (2007) ★★★(+)
                                                                I guess it's a testament to Lena's filmmaking skills, because I can't tell how much of these are staged.
                                                                80. The Fountain* (Tiny Furniture short film) (2007) ★★★(+)
                                                                I'm getting the impression that her short films are inspired by Jackass-style pranks. She also, without question, enjoys people watching her naked and half-naked.
                                                                81. Creative Nonfiction* (Tiny Furniture short film) (2009) ★★
                                                                I'm sensing some themes. Again. guy sleeps on her floor, then is invited into her bed. But non-sexually. Douchy guys? Showing off her not-so-flattering body? Check and check! Anyway, this one doesn't work at all. I would say it was too ambitious. Lena Dunham is strongest doing character studies. She should stick to 'em. The shaky-cam is annoying. And I don't believe for a second that Ella (Dunham) would have a friend like Carly.

                                                                What an odd movie but very funny. We watched it at the Alamo Drafthouse Theater and all the things shown before hand had to do with the movie (A Paul Bunyan cartoo, an intro to Minnesota language, ect.) and that really added to it.

                                                                November 6

                                                                Very sweet, cute and funny. I adore Amy Adams and this was my second film in a row with Frances McDormand.

                                                                I so missed my era.
