Submitted and Written by Kae J, [insert swine flu joke here]

Pass the Pigs! Originally called Pig Mania! A sweet sweet game where you… rolled… pigs? I guess. I remember an extremely intricate scoring system. Double Leaning Jowler zomgz!!!11!!

Epic Win: The Shawshank Redemption

Nov. 17, 2009

Submitted by Brooks, in the shadow of Forrest Gump

It’s pretty hard to dislike any movie with a Morgan Freeman voiceover. He’s like the grandfather you never had. I once got in an argument with someone about who would be better as the voice of God — Morgan Freeman or Donald Sutherland. Unfortunately, I pretty much lost the argument when the other person cited Bruce Almighty.

Epic Win: Steppenwolf

Nov. 17, 2009

Submitted by Carl S, reuniting with John Kay

I met someone named Steffan Wolfe once. I asked him if he was “born to be wild” or if he ever took girls on a “magic carpet ride.” Then I told him I was out of jokes. He didn’t think I was very funny.

Epic Win: Clue (Movie)

Nov. 16, 2009

Once Upon A Win

Submitted by katsak, with the candlestick in the library

Clue actually did pretty poorly in theaters (seems to be a theme today), but is still beloved by Tim Curry fans today. There was also a time when it seemed like Comedy Central was airing it every other day, in between John Candy marathons. I’m confident that this will remain the best adaptation of a board game, unless someone makes a movie out of Settlers of Catan.

Monday WTF: The Apple

Nov. 16, 2009

Truthfully, I’m not a big fan of musicals, but I would gladly sit down and watch The Apple, just to try and understand WTF is going on. According to Wikipedia, it was a critically panned disco-musical, a not-so-subtle parable of the biblical fall.

If you’ve got any other nostalgic WTFs, leave them in the comments.
