Pitchin’ Movies With The Sound Off Welcome to the premiere episode of Pitchin’ Movies With The Sound Off, where hosts Marcus and Tra$h Dog do what Hollywood would never dare — pitch a movie about someone they barely know, based entirely on a YouTube video filmed in a basement. This week’s cinematic masterpiece: How Gerald Died, the totally real and completely unnecessary biopic of Leo Sayer, the blue-eyed king of soul you might only know from An Extremely Goofy Movie. Expect chaotic “research,” questionable casting, and a full-blown cinematic universe that starts (and probably ends) right here. 🎬 In This Episode The heroic fire rescue that starts it all Casting Hugh Grant, Jesse Eisenberg, and Joe Keery in roles they didn’t ask for The “Beatles Scene” that could get us sued Clown symbolism, character deaths, and unearned emotional payoffs 👕 Grab Some Totally Real Merch 👉 https://totallyrealbands.com 💰 Support the Show on Patreon 👉 https://www.patreon.com/cw/PitchinMoviesWithTheSoundOff 🎧 Follow for New Episodes Every Week Early access, shoutouts, and behind-the-scenes chaos await our patrons. 🔖 Episode Chapters 00:00 – Welcome to Pitchin’ Movies With The Sound Off00:35 – The premise: “We’re making a biopic about someone we don’t know”02:00 – The concept: How Gerald Died04:00 – Who is Leo Sayer?
