Home VHS: Bauman and Triskel April 15

General

Overview

The player can reduce boredom by -5 for each line of dialog when in the vicinity of a television playing the VHS.

The VHS can be used with an appropriate television to play the dialog of Bauman and Triskel, the two renowned movie critics and hosts of this show. Critics began arguing about Return of the Nightwatcher movie. Triskel complains about the boringness of the movie and prefers the old '60s Nightwatcher, whereas Bauman was intrigued by the movie's stock market narration, and also sees this movie as an upgrade to the former. Bauman comprehensively describes whatelse were done right, but Triskel isnt impressed at all. They end up disagreeing about movie's performance.

Bauman:
Hi, I'm Susan Bauman, movie critic at the Louisville Dispatch...

Triskel:
And I'm Roger Triskel, movie critic for the Louisville Sun-Times.

Bauman:
In this episode we look at Return of the Nightwatcher...

...in which our brooding superhero takes on the villainous Stockbroker.

What did you make of Return of the Nightwatcher, Roger?

Triskel:
I know the Stockbroker was in the comics, but that was in the '30s.

I don't come to Nightwatcher to learn about the bond market and short selling!

Bauman:
But surely you don't think audiences want the campy '60s Nightwatcher?

Triskel:
I'd prefer that! At least you're not bored to tears by bar charts.

Bauman:
I thought all the stock market stuff was very interesting.

Triskel:
I'm not saying it was all bad, just that it was out of place in what's...

...supposed to be a light action adventure movie.

It's a hard no from me.

Bauman:
Oh Roger, you're always so cynical.

I thought the effects were great, and Val Keaton gave a great performance.

Plus those soaring Art Deco towers... incredible art direction.

Triskel:
Well, it was okay.

Bauman:
It's a big yes from me.

There we have it. Another split vote.

Join us next time when we look at The Danger in Your Bed!

Music:
♫ Jaunty saxophone music. ♫
