Road House, the Musical

From the mailbox:

Hey, Scoop. Looooong time fan. I was in college from 97 to 2002 and somewhere around there I found the Fun House. Other Crap is one of the few websites I still check daily. Thanks so much for the great insight (and incredible baseball knowledge).

I know you’re a big Road House fan, and I run a movie/tv/pop culture podcast with two other gents. A couple times a year we do a musical pitch episode where each of us is assigned a movie and we are tasked with turning it into a musical. This round I was given Road House. I recorded 5 song “parodies” in the style of a Road House musical. We post our podcast (The New Way) on YouTube as well with just our cover art as the visual.

This is not a request to repost, but obviously if you want to that would be amazing. Mostly just wanted to share some laughs with you. I think it turned out pretty funny. My friend pitched a musical of Big Trouble in Little China with all parodies of Warren Zevon songs which is pretty great too. If you like Zevon.

Link is below.

Thanks again for all your amazing work over the years! Cheers!

Scoop’s notes:

To Matt: Thanks for the kind words. Funny stuff, but I thought Road House already was a musical. Strange coincidence: as soon as I read your e-mail, I thought that the lead song had to be “Pain Don’t Hurt,” and I laughed out loud when you got to the same place.

To others: The embed below goes directly to the Road House pitch, but there’s a lot of fun elsewhere. The Big Trouble pitch starts at 23:00.

  1. Thanks so much, Scoop for posting this. It’s gonna sound silly. But to be featured on Other Crap is legit a bucket list item come true!

    Also, cannot wait to watch Humanoids From The Deep. Your cinema synopses and analyses have always been one of my favorite things about the site…next to Monica Bellucci, Carla Gugino, Jennifer Connely and Dame Eva Green.
