Earth Girls Are Easy (1988) - Because You Watched Starcrash

<p>“Oh, Wiploc, I think I’ll miss you least of all.”</p> <p>On this outing your Distinguished Professors crash land in the backyard swimming pool of 1988’s <em>Earth Girls are Easy</em>! Topics discussed include a rival Dr. Love, the omnipresence of this movie on Comedy Central back in the day, this podcast as a social contract, the failure to launch Julie Brown’s career, the strange hotness of Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblum, Clink’s realization that he’s the only one of us without a side podcast, a failure comparison with our old enemy <em>Supergirl</em>, the need for either more dancing or more plot, Valerie’s super-easy job, this movie’s general observance of the prime directive, the ol’ “aliens learning about life through TV” motif, the dumbness of trying to test a mirage by swimming through it, OMG Zeebo is black! and the anti-miscegenation message of this pro-miscegenation movie, “You’re tearing me apart!” before <em>The Room</em>, a faint connection to sitcom <em>Head of the Class</em>, the failure of the love triangle, and the demise of human interaction due to the internet.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/because-you-watched/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/because-you-watched/support</a>
