Hey you beautiful people,
Like pretty much everyone now, I have a newsletter on Substack. I'm pleased to announce Nathan Rabin's Bad Ideas, a brand spanking new clearinghouse for some of my very worst ideas.
I see Nathan Rabin's Bad Ideas as an extension of Nathan Rabin's Happy Place and its spin-off books, which are in no small part about seeing some crazy projects through to completion, whether that means writing about pretty much EVERY American movie about the film industry or chronicling every phase of "Weird Al" Yankovic's career.
What kind of bad ideas will I be exploring? Well, I will be writing up ALL of the Ernest P. Worrell movies because it's about time that overlooked comic genius got his due.
I'll also be going to the theater every Friday and reviewing two movies a week for the first time since the late 1990s, when I was a freelancer for The A.V Club. YOU can determine what I write up. First up is this Friday, when I'll either be writing up some combination of the Gerard Butler movie Plane, the House Party reboot or Meg3an.
Later that night I'll be attending a Shrek-themed rave, which I will also be writing up for Nathan Rabin's Bad Ideas.
And in February I will begin writing up either the complete filmography of James Belushi or Gary Busey. YOU CAN DECIDE by getting a paid subscription (just 5 dollars a month, or the cost of an expensive coffee from Starbuck's) and casting your vote.
That's just the beginning! Nathan Rabin's Bad Ideas can be anything and I very much want you beautiful, supportive people to help shape and mold what it becomes.
This is an exciting new phase in my career. I invite y'all to join me. Also, the Happy Place's Patreon account is on track to take in about thirty thousand dollars this year after five and a half years of being my full-time job and the big passion in my career so I could very much use another revenue source.
I've really stepped up my freelancing as of late but man oh man would I love it if this Substack was a success.
So if you would be kind enough to help me spread the word it would be much appreciated!
