S1E21: To Die Is Hard/Suck-a-tomi Plaza Booze and B-Movies
-
- Film Reviews
What would you do if you had $2000 burning a hole in your pocket, access to a university office building for a few hours, and eight friends who all had nothing better to do at the same time? Probably make a movie better than this.
Glenn Berggoetz is a magician who, through persuasion or spiked drinks, convinces a few other people to spend a beautiful, sunny Colorado day "filming" a travesty that he wrote, directed and produced. With all the hiking, cycling, and craft breweries within a short drive of the Metropolitan State University of Denver, there were a plethora of better options to waste an afternoon.
Glenn Berggoetz plays an English professor who "fights" bad guys. "Writing" that only amuse Glenn. Glenn wins. Society loses.
To Die Is Hard Final Grades
Steve: Always looking for silver linings, "Eternal Optimist" Steve says Glenn deserves some credit for production value, and praises the movie for being well lit and audible. But, he also didn't actively watch most of it. Bottom shelf.
Brandon would gladly be in a future Glenn Berggoetz production if he films another one within three kilometers of his house. Agreement all around that the movie featured good lighting and sound quality, but would have preferred if the movie could be neither seen nor heard. Bottom shelf.
Cocktail of the Week:
Wisconsin Old Fashioned
2 oz Brandy
Orange slice
Maraschino Cherries
A sugar cube
Lemon-lime soda
Muddle orange slice, cherries and sugar in a rocks glass. Add brandy quantity of your preference. Stir to combine. Top with your favorite lemon-lime soda. Garnish with additional orange wedge, more cherries and some of that sweet, sweet "cherry juice." Call your health care provider's scheduling line and make an appointment to get your A1C checked.
Cocktail Grade: A sugar bomb that will have the ghost of Wilford Brimley haunting your nightmares. But you know what, screw that guy. The residents and supper clubs of the Great State of Wisconsin know better. A+++++++
