Today we learned that Jonah and his crew will be watching “Santo and the Treasure of Dracula.” I was really hoping this would be a Jonah episode. The aesthetic just feels “Jonah,” to me, if that makes sense.
I thought it might be fun to hear your speculations/hopes as to which crew will riff which movies.
To me, “Munchie” feels like it will be a sort of spiritual successor to “Mac and Me,” so I kind of hope Jonah does that one as well. I feel like it would be only fitting that Joel should do “Gamera vs Jiger.” I think Emily could really make “The Eyes of Sumuru,” sparkle.

I bet Emily’s commitment to sparkle motion is undoubtable.

I misread the title as Jonah for Santa and I was confused because I just can’t see it yet.

I think Jonah’s crew is getting the new Gamera movie. Maybe the live cast is getting Munchie?

I had a feeling this was going to be a Jonah episode — he had a lot of enthusiasm for this film on Twitter after the Turkey Day reveal (from what I recall).
Having multiple hosts at once is more unique a concept for this format than I expected…speculating about who hosts what is going to be fun, at least in these early stages.

Yeah, I was struck last night by that. We get to speculate something we’ve never had to before. It’s cool to think about.

The way this thread is titled makes me think of old commercials like Claude Akins (what a nice butt!) for AAMCO. “Hello, I’m Jonah Heston. Have you considered making El Santo part of your daily routine…?”
