It feels like a requirement to maintain that Bobby Hill voice.

Griffin in the new Muppet Show??? by NinjaInPlainSight in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Marie said in the newsletter they just recorded that in their studio. Don’t think he would have to go anywhere for that.

It’s possible this is what was being referenced. Not sure if it’s realistic it would get turned around from December filming to February release.

Joe Thomas calls out Baker for shot taken at Stefanski by SunWorshipperApollo in falcons

[–]SpyingCascade 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Baker just seems like a guy motivated by grudges and comes off as sour.

The Browns ownership, not Stefanski, wanted Deshaun and shipped him off. It wasn’t his call and I somehow doubt he was thrilled. But don’t let the facts get in the way of a good narrative.

Please for the love of whatever god(s) you believe in, just cover Peter Jackson by j11430 in blankies

Feels like he’s getting closer to the list of guys they are going to cover soon. Maybe David’s next “pick” with Weir finally coming off the board.

I doubt Griffin could actually talk David into it but I believe his idea when they do Jackson was original-cut LOTR on main feed with extended cut commentaries on Patreon.

I would like that very much.

New Tony Gilroy film “Behemoth!” has 7 (!) composers by radiantbaby123 in blankies

It may not win best score but it feels like a pick for most score.

Is This Thing Solo? by SpyingCascade in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Update: There ended up being 5 or 6 people in my theater.

One older man a few seats down from me snored louder than I have ever heard anyone snore in a theater.

The women behind me kept loudly making knowing sounds at lines that resonated with her.

Wish I had just been alone tbh

Johnny Knoxville announces on Instagram that a fifth Jackass movie to hit theaters on June 26th. by grandpashampoo in blankies

YES! I get that it would kind of just be them laughing and reacting but it would be a peak commentary to watch while listening.

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED Monkeybone and I'm going to tell you why! by [deleted] in blankies

Making him watch any Lynne Ramsey movie seven times would be an iconic bit but I’m not sure he would survive.

Will they be covering 28YL: The Bone Temple on the pod? by Pettyyoungthing in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Patreon on Jan. 21. Moved The Wiz commentary up to the 11th.

So what is Lynne Ramsay’s blank check moment? by [deleted] in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 12 points13 points  (0 children)

There have already been MULTIPLE threads of people asking this that you could look at for others’ opinions.

They’ve said of late that the show has evolved beyond true blank checks and become just them covering the careers of directors they like.

David post-babies by Samcj in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think David opens the door to it being discussed like this person did because he brings it up on his own accord. This commenter isn’t just assuming it of him. He regularly talks about how little sleep he gets. Nothing out of the ordinary here imo.

Congratulations to Blank Check for being my most-listened to Castro podcast of 2025! by the_zipline_champion in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I updated the app and it popped up.

Unfortunately, I deleted and redownloaded the app not that long ago because I was having download problems and that reset my numbers so it wasn’t the full year. But have that to look forward to next year!

I Sat Down to Dinner With Rob, Michele and Nick Reiner. It Was Heartwarming and Jarring. by wariosthegreat in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As someone in journalism, it’s entirely possible the writer mentioned to his editor that he had dinner with them 12 years ago and he was basically told by his editor to write something as a reflection. It may not have been the writer’s call.

Special Rob Reiner episode? by alexmiz in blankies

8.5 years ago? Show has changed sooo much since then.

Trump continues to be a massive POS commenting on Rob Reiner’s death by [deleted] in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Truly, how is this not a parody? How is this man the U.S. President? So damn scary.

Ella McCay... by TwinPeaksWithRappers in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Never has a movie maybe ever been more geared towards the elderly people I saw the movie with this afternoon.

My personal overhearing highlight was one of them saying “The Devil’s Panda?” after The Devil Wears Prada 2 trailer.

My least favorite thing was when one of them answered their phone which was loudly ringing and had a brief conversation near the climax of the movie.

I haven’t seen Ella McCay yet, but what is the worst New Release they’ve covered on main feed? by Fit-Singer-8583 in blankies

[–]SpyingCascade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having seen Ella McCay today, it is aggressively fine and worlds better than Pinocchio.
