Episode 96: Godzilla - Bulworth - Fear & Loathing In Las Vegas: May 22, 1998

Opening Weekend

Up from the depths, 30 stories high,  breathing fire, his head in the sky…GENE SHALIT?!? No, it’s just the three big openers from May 22, 1998: Terry Gilliam’s fever dream adaptation of Hunter S. Thompson’s FEAR AND LOATHING IN LAS VEGAS, the Warren Beatty political satire BULWORTH, and the Roland Emmerich disaster….movie…?….GODZILLA!

It’s the spring of ‘98, and while Fred is playing on subway platforms to strangers, Dan is playing on stages to no one, and Jason is playing in bathrooms with EVERYONE. 
Beatty is rapping, Depp is ranting, and the audience for Godzilla ‘98 is retching. 

Roland Emmerich, you Swine! 
Get ready to go Gonzo for EPISODE 96 of OPENING WEEKEND!
