Good Burger 2 - Edible but Expired Nostalgia

Cinematic Doctrine

PARTY PLEASER:
Shirleon joins Melvin in summarizing the sequel to the late-90s Kenan & Kel hit, Good Burger 2! From more silly burger-flippin' hijinks to Ed's absurd antics, the two discuss how things feel kind of the same, things feel a bit different, and borger!
Topics:

• (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 50-minutes discussing the newly announced "Twisted Childhood Cinematic Universe" - or "Poohniverse", a cinematic universe catapulted by the wild financial success of Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey - and how alternate renditions of classic tales like Peter Pan and Bambi are far from uncommon. (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
• First things first: No Dan Schneider. He's no where to be seen.
• The comedy in Good Burger 2 is very skit-based. It's SNL-type humor.
• The first film included some absurd cartoon humor that Shirleon & Melvin liked. Good Burger 2 doesn't really have any.
• The actual complicating incident doesn't happen until 40-minutes into the movie, which is super weird.
• Unlike its predecessor, Good Burger 2 isn't very tactile. Things never feel quite real.
• Shirleon, "This movie - as much as there's differences - it's the exact same plot as the first movie. The exact same. That's not how you do nostalgia."

Recommendations:

• Twisted Tale Series of Books (Shirleon's Favorites: So This is Love / Go the Distance / As Old as Time / Part of Your World - [graphic novel])
• Frogman (2023) (Movie)
