30. The Jennie Project: A Very Non-DCOM Feeling DCOM
from The Start of Something New · host Start of Something New Podcast
Let’s see, suburban family consisting of a mischief making son, a precocious daughter, a clearly overworked mother, and a father who clearly cares more about his job than his family. Well that certainly sounds like a lot of movies that have already been made, so how do we spice that up? Oh I know, how bout the dad illegally smuggling home a chimpanzee from African that then goes on to learn sign language. That’s right listeners we’re discussing the 2001 DCOM, The Jennie Project. Jake discusses the time period the film is set in, Kate makes it known that she does not have a PHD, and both of them agree that Hugo Archibald is in the running for worse DCOM dad. This episodes tangents include but are not limited to: An update after basically a month away, the ending of the semesters, our very small high school cafeteria, animals in film, the totally not at all problematic plot lines of Twilight, spooky basements, and how not DCOM-y this DCOM feels Follow the host’s Twitter: @jakeblue98 & @katevrandom.
