Basketball: The Movie That Almost Made Us Vomit

  • サマリー

  • n this episode of "Trees in Space," hosts Nate and Jason dive into a discussion about the 1999 rated R comedy movie "Basketball," created by the folks behind "South Park." Nate picked the movie on a whim as it popped up on his Roku Channel, reminiscing how he hasn't seen it since 1998.The conversation weaves through various memories and impressions of the film, highlighting the characters, plot mechanics, and some of the ridiculous elements the movie features. Jason shares his eye-rolling reaction upon Nate's suggestion to watch it, recalling how he found the movie pathetically stupid at first. However, as they dissect the movie, both hosts find a few enjoyable and funny moments despite the overall silliness.They touch on Ernest Borgnine’s character, who both found to be a standout role in the film, and how he nearly made Nate "throw up" with certain comedic bits. Jenny McCarthy’s brief appearance is also discussed, along with Yasmin Bleeth, who was a crush of Jason's back in ’98. Themes like ego-clash between best friends and the oddball humor of the film explore how sports and quirky storytelling intertwine.Their critique digs into the comedic timing, character development, and the flaws in logic within the film, leading to discussions about certain outrageous scenes, like the Rottweiler attack and the peculiar "Lazy Boy" ball. With a focus on slapstick humor and references to late '90s culture, the hosts appreciate how it acts as a time capsule showcasing juvenile yet, at times, entertaining comedy.The segment wraps with mixed reviews from both internet critics and Nate and Jason’s perspectives, highlighting different elements they enjoyed or disliked, like the weirdly likable skip of moments with Robert Stack on "Unsolved Mysteries" and the memorable yet cringe-worthy climax scenes.All in all, this discussion is a nostalgic romp through a movie that combines absurdity, humor, and fleeting charm, earning a rating of one tree and a stump from Nate and two trees from Jason. They encourage listeners to share their thoughts and own ratings in the comments section as well.
