Episode 59 - The August of Doom

It was a month of misfortune for Disney: August 1994 brought four separate flops, though one was clearly better than the others.  Touchstone gave us IT'S PAT: THE MOVIE, a poor attempt to bring the popular SNL character to the big screen.  What can you say about it?  Not much, and Mike and Chad preferred it that way.  From there, the co-hosts turned to Hollywood Pictures, which churned out another Pauly Shore "comedy" (IN THE ARMY NOW), an erotic thriller (COLOR OF NIGHT), and an enjoyable film aimed at a pre-teen audience (CAMP NOWHERE).  Disney's attempt to "cast the net wide" by releasing films in different genres aimed at different audiences at roughly the same time may not have worked, but it still made for a lively discussion on this episode.
