Commenting mostly to help you promote this series. I would never watch Ginger, but boy is it an interesting backstory to the guy who made High School Musical.

To quote a British gentleman a friend of mine knew upon seeing Pacific Rim, "Well, that was a daft film." Having watched all three "This Movie Exists" episodes, you have quite a variety going on right out of the gate. Classic film history with an upbeat "you should probably see this" with "The Crusades", nostalgic more recent history and "yep, that wasn't a fever dream!" with "Happily Ever After", and a big dose of WTF? with "Ginger". I've always been a big fan of your film history and Gen X/Millennial nostalgia stuff and definitely would love seeing more of that, but having the odd curveball where we just marvel and laugh at sheer goofiness is also fun. Absurdity is a nice palate cleanser. Looking forward to watching the next installment in this series!

It’s movies like that are why I’m glad you’re doing this series. Just really bizarre stuff that you otherwise have no reason to bring up.

0:50 speaking as someone whose favorite podcast is Tony Goldmark's Escape From Vault Disney: ...holy fuck

Watching these back to back with this one being my first, and I gotta say, I'm really excited for this new venture. Schlocktober was always my favorite part of the year (my birthday is around then), and knowing that we get more of that energy outside of one month a year, really puts a smile on my face. Keep doing your thing, Bob. Great start to a promising series

I appreciate you covering the spectrum from “this movie will be remembered forever and this is why” to “this movie is worth your while despite its rough edges” to “this movie is trashy and goofy but just so damn fun” and now culminating with “this movie is a movie”

1:09 oh, shit! He directed Minutemen!? That’s one of my FAVORITE DCOMS. Shame it never got a sequel. That’s right high school musical fans, Minutemen is the film that deserved a trilogy. I am standing by that.

Honestly, all three of these have been great. I've always loved your "retro film review with proper context" videos and these have been no exception. Feel free to keep this one going, I think you have a winner. (I'm just going to copy/paste this on all three for the algo.)

I get a lot of amusement out of the roughies. They were often really stupid, but it gives a good sense of the culture that existed right under the surface of supposedly square, middle-class society.

Every now and then I hear someone say something like 'such and such movie couldn't be made nowadays'. With a movie like Ginger I think that's actually true.

This series is the best idea I think I've ever seen out of Film KZread (TM) and I'm so ready for more of this. Got the next 2 queued up already.

That ski hill where the exploding toboggan scene takes place looks familiar but that's probably just a function that a lot of such ski hills looks the same. Yeah those are definitely movies that exist...

So, I’m a fan of all three new episodes. I really like the context that all three movies are placed in. I’ll be back for every episode!

Bob, I always loved all your work and this looks like a great mixture of Schlocktober with The Big Picture. Keep them coming. I'll will post the same comment on the 3 videos because I want all of them to have engagement, but I'm not very creative🤣

Wow! Definitely the most interesting of the three videos but wonder if it's going to trigger all the YT triggers! Like this one, Snow White and Crusaders episodes in that order. The ethical, historical and political aspects of this are well done.

Me: This is like something Jack Horner made in Boogie Nights. Bob: 13:52 Me: ….What th… Can he hear me…?

From now on, whenever a documentarian discusses the Kuleshov effect, I expect the example to be the Neapolitan-to-whipcrack cut around 3:51

This was definitely my favourite of the 3 films chosen for the pilot in terms of what I expected "This Movie Exists" to be, in terms of very forgotten, obscure and interesting for some strange reason(like what the director went on to do in the future) types of film. I don't know if it's the kind of feedback you're looking for as someone who'll be watching this series regardless because I've been subbed for a long time and like your content, rather than a new audience member, but I am at least drawn more towards this kind of film as a topic.

That you go into the history of these movies, especially the less ad friendly ones, is admirable, and I trust you to talk about them with care, nuance, and perfectly timed jokes.

Well, if you're talking husband and wife teams (and I stress that Paul didn't make Milla an Anderson until halfway through the Resident Evil cycle), you gotta mention Roger and Julie Corman, whose own 1970s output has to be seen to believed (and was very much an inspiration for Paul).

This is why I love you, MovieBob.

I have now seen all 3 of your "pilot" videos for This Movie Exists, and I'm genuinely excited to see this series going further. I suspect that the ceiling on how successful this series can get will be a fair bit lower than Really That Good, since the series calls for shorter reviews of movies that a lot of people online have never heard of, I think that'll suit my tastes better, since I've always enjoyed you shedding light on weird, obscure movies like these. A movie I'd love to see you talk about in this format is The Long Goodbye, which is a kind of anti-detective-drama directed by Robert Altman that did poorly at the box office and was panned by most critics for rejecting the genre of the novel it was adapting. Gene Siskel, Roger Ebert and Pauline Kael all liked it to some degree, and most people who talk about it in recent years seem to take the movie for what it is, and appreciate it more than contemporary audiences and critics generally did. To give an idea of how strange the movie is, it spends the first, like, 10 minutes following the protagonist walking to the store to get his cat's favorite food, failing to find it, walking back home, and trying to give his cat an alternative that his cat rejects, and then runs away. The protagonist is a private detective.

Of your three opening episodes of This Movie Exists, this is by far the most bizarre (the movie, that is). This is not the oddest movie I have ever seen (my father screened Flesh Gordon for us back in the day), but I am certain that watching this trilogy would be an experience.

Well that was something I watched. Excellent work as usual, but I think I was checked out for a bunch of it when the movie itself was playing

Loved all three episodes of the new show, though this one might be my favorite of the three. Love old schlocky grindhouse movies and this one looks like a great series to binge with some beers and some friends. Can't wait for more!

Algorithm boosting comment: I'm really not sure what I saw, but maybe I will check it? I'm just glad the "High School Musical" guy didn't mix the fetish weird kink stuff with the family friendly stuff (Dan Schneider!). Going for the other two!

See now I have to search the copyright office database.

I'm not sure I'll ever care about this movie at all. but...the description of the types of movies talked about here are 1000% worth watching.

Damn, that was quite a rabbit hole. By the end I forgot we started with the High School Musical. This movie... definitely exists.

A really interesting trio of premiere episodes! Keep up the great work. Looking forward to more.

i first heard about the Ginger trilogy back int he early 2000s on an old text-based bad movie review site. I've seen them. i still own DVDs of them. the clip with the maracas triggered a flashback. that scene in the movie was loooooong.

The fact that they left in the slow start to the toboggan

Fascinating stuff thank you for educating me!

Now this is quality cinema

I don't usually comment ever, but I'm going to comment here and on the other two "This Movie Exists" vids because I REALLY LOVE Learning about movies I had no idea existed. For years now I kept thinking to myself "I wish Movie Bob did more vids like the Schlocktober stuff." I really hope this new direction is very successful because I for one want more.

Well, that's three winners in a row, all with a good chunk of film history. Bob, I'm honestly happy to watch any vids you put out under This Movie Exists. I trust you to always find the most interesting stuff :)

Heres to a new successful series! Oh...and i totally need to see these movies now.

Well, we do a bad movie night every Thursday so "yes" we'll be watching these. Thanks!

Love the show, looking forward to seeing more of these.

This is great. Something that Shocktober wouldn't naturally pick up but such a great use of the format. The films itself, the story behind them, the history and placement in th genre. All top work Mr Chipman. I respect you discussing more adult dare too especially as people tend to play it annoying cautious due to the dreaded algorithm

I came in with high expectations, and this video went above and beyond! Lots of fun!

Minutiae that I noticed "You rotten bastard" was followed by the sound of actual glass hitting the floor and maybe bouncing around rather than a foley sound of a glass breaking. It is realistic but not the expected dramatic sound. I don't know why that interested me other than it is interesting to see what choices a creator makes.

Love when Bob covers some ridiculously obscure stuff. I hope we get more comics are weird soon

I thought this was about the Canadian girl werewolf “GingerSnaps” movies. The weird coincidence is that this seem kinda like a Russ Meyer film… and I watched my first Russ Meyer film last night (Faster Pussycat Kill Kill)

must say, after 18 minutes of "this movie exists" concluding on "probably best forgotten" interesting statement

It is fascinating to see wht the films you only hear about.

I really hope this vid threaded the needle of demonetization. What an intensely weird and disturbing trilogy, which I think you did a good job of illustrating. Thinking format wise, I felt like I needed a little more context for the genre and other films in it (as was done in the crusades vid), but I was also kinda repulsed by the genre as displayed, so spending more time on it would’ve been uncomfortable. Contradictory, I know, but something here didn’t fully split the difference, and I don’t have an answer.

Love these. Love the new program idea. I'm hear for it.

Cheri Caffaro is honestly so hilarious in this role.

This was fun. Thanks Bob.

Keep up the strong work Bob!!

Great stuff, loving the new series!

On first viewing of all 3, I'm not noticing much difference in the productions of the episodes, but I was either cleaning or gaming while listening in the background for roughly half of them so I can't speak too much to that aspect. Other than that, what I *can* say is that I was the most engrossed in both the Hollywood history and actual film breakdown of Crusades the most, followed by the tvtown background and interesting breakdown in Snow Pale

This was great! Keep it up!

Good series of the first 3 I like The Crusades the most because it goes deep into movie history.
