You called her that because you didn't remAmber her actual name

I know you should never victim blame but the mother in law kinda bought that upon herself

T
The Latter Day Autist · December 28, 2025

22:10-22:20 or so. Did this film happen in Miami in the Dexter universe?

P
Paulie Paul · September 5, 2025

Last night I watched the second movie she mentioned, Engaged to a Psycho (alternate title "Murder at the Mansion" on Tubi) and it was absolutely BONKERS in the best way. Highly recommend. And I put Deadly Mile High Club (also on Tubi) on my watch list; will probably watch it tonight.

J
Jenny Nicholson · September 6, 2025

I didn't know they're on tubi! How exciting

D
Danielle Schatten · August 9, 2025

man David Cronenberg really fell off with Crash 2: Plash

Matthew Steinberg · November 25, 2024

As an actual flight instructor watching this for the first time , I love it !

All this tease for mystery lodge. Still looking forward to it.

GILROY GARDENS JUST TRIGGERED THE SHIT OUT OF ME DO YOU MEAN MY HOMETOWN GILROY GARDENS ???!??? JENNY

Kenzie Morrison · September 28, 2021

Have you heard of Mother May I Sleep with Podcast? it’s a lifetime movie podcast—it’s soooo good the episodes can get to be like 3 hours long bc they get Deep into it!! it’s perfect. i feel like you and the host would get along, you should totally guest!!!

A
AudreyDuck · March 19, 2021

This is like the fun house mirror version of that Bob’s Burgers episode where Linda takes flying lessons with a horny flight instructor.

A
Aaron Fontes · January 25, 2021

I found Deadly Mile High Club illegally on Youtube, if anyone wants to hunt it down (probably shouldn't link to that here), and just like Jenny suggests it is insane.

A
Aramis Calcutt · December 16, 2020

A wonderful review! I heard the guys at “How Did This Get Made?” dissect this very same movie a couple of months ago. Having heard both of these reviews, I was inspired to watch the movie. It really is insane. I have to say that Allison McAtee as the villainous flying instructor was a delight to watch. Of course the actor playing Margaret the mother-in-law was also fantastic. In fact, all the performances except the two protagonists Jake and Annie (?) were very entertaining. The neighbor with the doorbell camera was hilarious! Same with Gonzo the rival flight instructor.

M
Maerose Pepe · November 25, 2020

Okay so I google Engaged To A Psycho and it turns out MY OLD COLLEGE ROOMMATE IS IN IT WTF??

D
Doomed Gary · November 2, 2020

Oh my god. I need to start watching lifetime movies.

A
Anna Glin · September 7, 2020

another bronycon video pls, I loved the first one!!

A
Andrzej Kapolka · August 17, 2020

Pretty good story, I guess. ;)

A
Ali Anne · July 7, 2020

Because of this video I'm spending my afternoon watching Psycho Granny. No regrets.

O
Oathian · July 3, 2020

I know this is a bit late, but I would love to see an Internet short film video. Whatever that is, it sounds interesting to me!

a
ariscari · July 2, 2020

500k video= 500k giant porgs!!!

C
Conor Bugman · June 23, 2020

Brony con for sure!!!

D
Dash · June 23, 2020

Immensely enjoyed SW Land video and am eager to watch part 2 but totally get wanting to do something else in the interim, in which case I am intrigued by your take on the mystery YouTube video. Also, I am really hoping your shirt is not, in actuality, blue and black, else there's definitely something off with my brain.

R
Ryan Fuerst · June 22, 2020

Your content is always worth the wait!

D
Dana Welk · June 22, 2020

star wars land pt 2 ive been rewatching it waiting for the second part

S
Smoresmew · June 19, 2020

I can't wait for Star Wars land part 2 but also Brony Con sounds great!

S
Sabrina Gaul · June 15, 2020

I’m curious about the internet film. Also you mentioned in a previous ramble talking about a corporate YouTube video you thought was really weird, idk if that’s the same as the internet film or not but that sounds interesting!

A
Amery Chang · June 24, 2020

I’m so excited for the video about the corporate ad video too! It sounds like a bizarre passion project of Jenny’s and something she’s thought about a lot.

C
Catherine Ellzey · June 15, 2020

Star Wars two is my top pick but bronycon seems easier and faster and less time consuming for that’s my top pick too lol

E
Elizabeth Swan · June 13, 2020

here's some Engaged to a Psycho deep lore: its alternate title was Murder at the Mansion, which hints even less subtley to its inspiration from Knives Out

k
kew · June 11, 2020

Star Wars part 2 please :)

J
Jake Scott · June 10, 2020

My friends and I have talked about how we'd love to see a Gilroy Gardens video from you! We are so excited at the possibility!! The last time I went there it was still called Bonfante Gardens, and I have a cute little pin I cherish from the trip.

E
Eric Liuu · June 9, 2020

The morpeko is a good boy!!! Stan Marnie!!!

F
Fletcher Gross · June 9, 2020

I VOTE BRONYCON

F
Fletcher Gross · June 9, 2020

Also interested in swan princess

d
diego kontarovsky · June 8, 2020

star wars land part 2 is definitely my top pick, although the 40 minute short thing sounds interesting too. i’ve heard doctors are recommending against using contacts while the pandemic is ongoing because it makes you touch your eyes. but of course you’ve had it, so i guess you’re good to go. either way, your eye comfort is the top priority. also, when you said how no movie is “off brand,” it reminded me that one time you discussed the possibility of a separate channel where you only talk about horror movies. i would love that!

S
Shaun Cheah · June 8, 2020

Has it been confirmed that those infected with COVID-19 are unable to re-acquire it? It would be pretty neat if it were like chickenpox in that way, but I had heard (possibly a long while ago; who can even fathom time in lockdown) that we still weren't sure how it functioned in that scenario. Would super suck if people are able to become re-infected only months after recovery or something.

M
Macy M · June 8, 2020

Was this Jake fella... particularly big?

J
Joy · June 9, 2020

And this Jakes also needs an education

H
HipsterVideo.com · June 7, 2020

I really want to see a photo of that wife's fedora....

L
Luis · June 7, 2020

OMG I just watched Deadly Mile High Club and it was as AMAZING as Jenny said! The mother-in-law was fantastic Jake really was that dumb and also the music was great. Watch and learn Miss Crash-and-Burn!

A
Andrew Henderson · June 7, 2020

Pouring one out for the Jeff the Killer Part 2 video we'll never get.

A
Ashley · June 6, 2020

All of those video options sound great but the two I was most excited about were Star Wars Land Part 2 (your avatar land video was NEXT LEVEL and actually makes me want to go to that park again so I want to see what Star Wars land is like) and BronyCon. Thanks for all the videos!

E
Elizabeth Swan · June 13, 2020

yess star wars land 2!

A
AKL · June 5, 2020

I'm dying for a new weird topic to now have an insanely deep understanding of after watching your video! Internet short film plz :)

S
Sterling Desrosiers · June 4, 2020

I would definitely like to see SWGE 2 next! I’m so excited for it

E
Emvee · June 4, 2020

That was very entertaining. Seeing some overlap between the Lifetime style of zaniness and the later 50 Shades “plot”. Have you seen this article about people affected longer term by Covid; hope it might be helpful (though concerning) in case you’re seeing persisting symptoms but getting disbelief from doctors/friends/family: https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2020/06/covid-19-coronavirus-longterm-symptoms-months/612679/

:3 · June 4, 2020

I’d like to see bronycon or the mystery internet video im really interested in finding out what the mystery video is.

s
superb lobster · June 4, 2020

I think it's a good idea to do a short video or two between long ones.

D
Darren Pierce · June 4, 2020

Aw. I like the glasses. 👓

s
scootfaltzbald · June 4, 2020

Honestly, all of your video options sound great, but I'm super interested in Bronycon or the internet film!! :) Follow your heart!!!

A
Andrey Barsky · June 3, 2020

Bronycon sounds really fun, but the mystery box of "Jenny's hot take on internet short film video" is 100% there for me

A
AS · June 3, 2020

I'm dying to see SWL part 2 but the Bronycon video just sounds too enticing. Please do Bronycon next!

J
Joely · June 3, 2020

Had no idea a swan princess video was even a possibility so super excited that that will come out someday. I loved those movies as a kid!

M
Mae · June 3, 2020

...why would the mother in law get in the plane, at ALL

D
Dundough Breadbox · June 3, 2020

:checks IMDb: — Oh, a thriller!

E
Emmy Pratt · June 3, 2020

Brony Con please! Also interested in what that 40 minute film is

T
The BabaDuck · June 3, 2020

At least we have closure on Jeff the Killer. It is disheartening that people don't have the empathy and restraint to not harass that young woman. I still strongly recommend people to buy the book and give it a read. It's available for kindle for the low low price of 99cents.

E
Emma Paolini · June 3, 2020

I'm really excited for the Star Wars Land video but if you want to do something shorter and less involved before you release that I don't mind waiting! I think the 40 minute internet video and the Bronycon video both sound fun

E
Evan Wachholz · June 3, 2020

No, there is not chloroform in an aircraft's first aid kit. At least not small training aircraft. Also, they are generally not called byplanes unless they have two wings. At my airport, we call them GA (general aviation) or just single engine aircraft. We sometimes say "prop"(propeller), but really only when referring to the fuel that the aircraft take.

D
Danielle Schatten · August 9, 2025

we call them Panplanes now because they are attracted to all wings regardless of fixture status :)

M
Martin · June 3, 2020

Patreon keeps eating my comments >:( Anyway! Media seems to have to reach a pretty entertaining level of endearing weirdness before Jenny does a video on it, so I'm excited to find out what this short YouTube film is. Also this ramble was amazing. Evil horny plane instructor is a wonderful pitch for a movie.

B
Bradley D Williams · June 3, 2020

internet film

P
Pj Martin · June 3, 2020

The internet short film one!!

R
Reade Bramer · June 3, 2020

Definitely would most like to see Star Wars Land Part 2. Having major theme park withdrawals and would love to hear what you have to say!

M
Marigold Lloyd Cameron · June 2, 2020

Bronycon is what I would most like to see next.

E
Erin Sullivan · June 2, 2020

most interested in star wars land part II, with bronycon being a close second (especially if you want to make something quicker/easier for you after the land before time video)

N
Nina Hatendo · June 2, 2020

Brony Con is my top priority lol

A
Alex Meyer · June 2, 2020

Update on the Chloroform in the first aid kit: My friend's boyfriend who's going to school for planes (he's not only a pilot but he's doing something in aerospace engineering I think) says that he's never seen it in a first aid kit on board any flight he's been on and doesn't know why it would be there in the first place

S
Steve Ray · June 8, 2020

Maybe back in 1949 flight kits had chloroform to calm unruly passengers, before Valium had been invented.

5
5in100ents · June 2, 2020

Jenny's awkward goodbyes to the camera are just so great

D
Dee Crosier · June 2, 2020

This ramble was great… I could happily watch a series of you re-capping terrible Lifetime movies, but I don’t how much fun that would be for you! I was kinda sad to see that “Another Man's Wife” starred Rena Sofer… I used to really like her in “Just Shoot Me!”, and thought she deserved her own show, but I guess that was a looong time ago… As for future videos, I’m sure Star Wars Land II will be brilliant, but I’m more hyped to see the Bronycon one, because of the curiosity-factor. Either way, thanks for keeping us entertained in these scary times. :)

J
Jack Loar · June 2, 2020

I know it's not something you can do right now, but I'd be very excited for the Gilroy Gardens video! OG fans know it's Bonfante Gardens

S
Steve Ray · June 10, 2020

It's not a theme park, but Gilgul Gardens in SLC is awesome.

D
Daniel Anderson · June 2, 2020

I'd vote Bronycon, followed by Star Wars Land part two. Clearing the decks on some of the older material would feel good!

A
Austin Hughes · June 2, 2020

I'd like to see Star Wars Land or Bronycon

J
Joey Parks · June 2, 2020

I’d be willing to wait for Star Wars Land pt 2, so 1-2 quicker produced videos is cool if it makes your work/life feel more balanced!

S
Spicy_big_boy · June 2, 2020

I’d really like to see the bronycon video as someone who is aware of the phenomenon but had no personal experience with I’d really like to see your take on it.

S
Shaun Cheah · June 2, 2020

Highly recommend listening to the description of Engaged to a Psycho after waking up from an unplanned nap and and spending that whole segment thinking "Is this Ready or Not (2019)?"

L
Lindsay Nelson · June 2, 2020

This was wonderful, just what I needed as a break from all the horrors of the world. Would love more Star Wars Land video content!

J
Josh Marjonen · June 2, 2020

Shorter brony con and 40 min youtube video then longer staw wars video that is a smart formula

B
Bella and Chloe · June 2, 2020

star wars land part 2 is my number one pick!

J
Josh Marjonen · June 2, 2020

Thanks jennayy

J
J Mad · June 2, 2020

I’d like to see the 40 min internet video review next please. Thanks!

M
Max Crawford · June 2, 2020

I highly recommend the Lifetime movie Lethal Seduction . Lots of crazy acting and an amazing death at the end

S
Steve Ray · June 2, 2020

"Lifetime Original Movies presents: 'Twilight Sparkle: A Deadly Adoption.'"

N
Nico Boggs · June 2, 2020

I'm super hype for Star Wars Land Part II, I'm really excited for the Mystery Lodge video too!! All your content slaps, but I'm most excited for anything theme park related tbh!

E
Ellie Green · June 2, 2020

I fear that Bronycon video might also be a ton of editing but I'd love to see that, then maybe the internet video one.

H
Helen Arneson · June 2, 2020

I would honestly love to see a bronycon vid

V
Victoria Blake · June 2, 2020

I have spent an obscene amount of hours looking at theme park footage these past few weeks and planning hypothetical Disney trips so I'd love a Galaxy's Edge video (that being said, I'm 10/10 intrigued by the other ideas)

C
Courtney Zanetti · June 2, 2020

I DO want Star Wars Land Part II, but I moreso just really want to see as much content as possible while I spend 500% more time at home than normal. So do something short and silly, Bronycon sounds great!

B
Brandon Beasley · June 2, 2020

I'm very intrigued by this internet short film, so that's my vote. Hope you're staying well, Jenny!

t
ts_babyjane · June 2, 2020

BRONYCON is on the top of my list. can't wait to hear a retrospective about a fabled internet subculture from someone who played a role in it. other then that don't really care, ill watch whatever you put out. ... also just realizing it's almost been a YEAR since i watched the first preview for Starwars land. wow.

J
Jason Reichtell · June 2, 2020

Alright first off, this ramble was FAR more entertaining than I was expecting it to be based on the unassuming title. Absolutely incredible presentation here Jenny, thank you! And secondly... yeah I'm about to install that Lifetime app myself right now, because how can I NOT watch a plethora of movies like this one, and the others that were mentioned?? lol Oh and also, Star Wars Land: part 2 because I'm missing the whole Disneyland experience somethin' fierce right now! Only if you feel up to it though as no matter what video you decide on making, all of us here already know that it's going to be great.

t
tenfeethigh · June 2, 2020

i'd be happy with any of these, but: 1) bronycon 2) star wars land 3) internet film. or, you can just post a public ramble -- this one made me laugh out loud so many times after a stressful day, so thank you!!

C
Carolyn Wang · June 2, 2020

internet short film!

S
Sarah · June 2, 2020

I'm so sad about the Jeff the killer situation :( that's one of my fave videos but of course the author herself is more important than getting a part two! I hope she's okay!! I'd love to see the bronycon video!! ❤️

K
Katie Gogerty · June 2, 2020

All of them sound awesome, but the internet film is tantalizingly intriguing lol.

L
Luis · June 2, 2020

That was the greatest story ever told I'm getting the Lifetime app just to watch Deadly Mile High Club! I'd like to see Star Wars Land II next mostly because I can't visit Disneyland in person for who knows how long. I really enjoyed seeing Gilroy Gardens on Twitch the other day and it almost felt like I was there. I think the Star Wars vid would be a similar experience. Also I love those glasses!

S
Shaun Cheah · June 2, 2020

I've always enjoyed the glasses rambles; I remember when they first showed up people were complaining that the reflection of the light was causing headaches? I dunno; it was fun for me to watch for the lights to line up and frame an illuminati eye triangle thing, but I guess that doesn't happen now with ring lights. But yeah, basically this comment is just a +1 to the "glasses are fine!" opinion.

D
Dani Langlie · June 2, 2020

Yay, my first new ramble since becoming a patreon supporter! I'm a recent discoverer of you, Jenny! I'd love to see the Bronycon video, although the Star Wars Land Part II one I'm very excited for - I just don't mind a longer wait because I know how much work goes into it.

S
Shaun Cheah · June 2, 2020

Dang, what it must be like to be new; to have a >3 years of unwatched rambles available. I'd recommend the college ramble, the pet peeves ramble, and, of course, Top 10 (and Bottom 5) Disney Animal Sidekicks. Actually, for the full experience, you should probably watch Ranking the Disney Princesses first and then do Disney Animal Sidekicks fourteen months later.

A
Aly L. · June 2, 2020

Personally my vote is for the bronycon video, second choice the internet short film!

E
Ella · June 2, 2020

Brony Con sounds like such a fun watch! I love when you discuss MLP

J
James Duquemin · June 2, 2020

Wait Wait Wait, Another Mans Wife? Jenny did you watch that on a brony live-steam in like 2012? I totally remember watching that and thinking whoever was commenting on it as super funny.

K
Kav · June 2, 2020

As with most, I'll be happy whatever you choose as your next video but, while you're looking for opinions, 'Star Wars Land Episodes IV - VI' is definitely the one to which I'm most looking forward as both of the existing 'Excruciating Theme Park Deep Dives' rank among my favourite videos of yours.

b
blitzball · June 1, 2020

really want to see SW land part 2. Too many topics were only teased in Part 1!

E
Emily Lace · June 1, 2020

Its a shame to hear Jeff the Killer 2 is officially cancelled but it's been so long since the first video that I'm not surprised, and if people were bullying the author then you're 100% right to not do the sequel no matter how much I or other people might have wanted it. Bronycon sounds fun, your video about applejack and plotting a new series was really good.

S
Shaun Cheah · June 2, 2020

100% is a pretty high amount. What about the video but as a Patreon bonus, or (more realistically) if it's the winner of a ramble poll?

S
Spencer Hastings · June 1, 2020

Video topics ranked by interest: Internet video Bronycon Star wars land

S
Sophie Raymer · June 1, 2020

I’m definitely most interested in Star Wars Land Part 2 (I think I’ve watched part 1 at least 3 times now), but understand that you may want something easier first!!! Bronycon also sounds super fun!

S
Spencer Hastings · June 1, 2020

I love lifetime movies/similarly melodramatic media and wish more ppl talked about them.

S
Shaun Cheah · June 2, 2020

Lifetime movies seem to have the chaotic energy of fanfiction without the pesky licensing issues of basing your story in an already established universe.

O
Olivia · June 1, 2020

Star Wars Land II!!!!!!!

M
Manon Hale · June 1, 2020

40 min internet short film sounds really mysterious and fun, runner up for me is bronycon :)

K
Katie · June 1, 2020

Jenny you should check out Lifetime Movie Club...all the schlocky Lifetime movies for four bucks a month. It’s been getting me through quarantine. I particularly recommend “Identity Theft of a Cheerleader” and “Stranger With My Face.” “Deadly Honeymoon” was a lot of fun too.

S
Spencer Hastings · June 2, 2020

Oh man I didn’t know they adapted stranger with my face. I wish all lois duncan books got adapted.

T
The Doom Merchant · June 1, 2020

As for future videos, short/long/short/long seems like a solid plan, and in that event I agree that Bronycon seems like the most obvious answer, though obviously I'll watch whatever

J
Joanna M · June 1, 2020

Very intrigued by the 40 minute internet video, and Star Wars Land 2 is my second choice. Kept waiting for you to tell us Jake was such a big man...

T
The Doom Merchant · June 1, 2020

Oof, genuinely sad that Jeff the Killer II will never see the light of day, but it sucks that people were bullying the author. Deciding not to spotlight them anymore is reasonable. Is the book still actually available, or did the author pull it because people were being dicks? If a video is no longer in the works, tbh I want to read it myself to at least experience the BATTLE OF THE BANDS

S
Steve Ray · June 2, 2020

Yes, it is! Welcome To The Mansion https://www.amazon.com/s?k=welcome+to+the+mansion&crid=QGS0MZ63MTP9

E
Elizabeth Gaska · June 1, 2020

Listen, I am here for that Swan Princess video but BronyCon would be cool too.

L
Lumi Næss · June 1, 2020

Watching this while working on my prototype. ^^ Really sucks that people can't enjoy some poking fun of authors without going and harassing them. I suppose there's no chance you'll do a ramble video either. Oh, well. It's not like anything else you talk about is gonna be boring so that's ok.

N
Neil Dutton · June 1, 2020

It's a tough time for everyone right now but I hope we are all ultimately able to Get That Jake.

K
Kaitlyn M Hutchinson · June 1, 2020

Bronycon sounds cool

B
Bryan Sutton · June 1, 2020

For picking my top preference, I'm torn between Star Wars Land and the 40 minute film. Star Wars Land cause I was set on going, until *gestures at everything*. The film because I'm curious to know what it is. Also, when you compared the video to a Nostalgia Critic review, I was hoping you'd say something like "It's not great, but a lot of it is pretty good. I can see why so many people like it."

A
Ash Green · June 1, 2020

I am so ready for the next installment of Star Wars Land, but if BronyCon can be done relatively quick I would be happy to have that to watch intermittently.

S
Steven Clark · June 1, 2020

I'm super curious about the mysterious 40-minute internet video. The less I know about the subject of a video ahead of time, the more excited I am about the idea.

k
keri · June 1, 2020

I'm really interested in that 40 min internet film video idea, or maybe Bronycon. Did the Dog's Purpose idea get canned?

M
MrKirbs · June 1, 2020

Ok but actually, April Fools video about Citizen Kane

L
Luc Gendrot · June 1, 2020

I for one agree that a quick, (relatively) easy video would be good and I think Bronycon is the clear winner there. I don't think anyone wants you to rush to complete the Star Wars Land II video, so if you wanted to do both the Bronycon and the "40-minute Internet Film" video nobody's gonna complain. Or...at least I wont

L
Lizzie Gardner · June 1, 2020

I
IHateBerwald · June 1, 2020

Can we make next month’s ramble a ranking of Pixar movies, if Jenny is not opposed to that idea of course.

S
Shred Cadmium · June 1, 2020

Not a full ramble ofc, but (as Patreon hates hyperlinks) if you Google "jennyenicholson twitter pixar harsh truths" the current ranking should be the top result

S
Sgt Sweetcheeks · June 1, 2020

The background getting more chaotic is too real 😂

S
Shaun Cheah · June 2, 2020

Not real enough until a cat named Anime and a horse like Merida's are vying for attention in the background while, like, a bespoke theme park named Swiftopia or something is being designed in the foreground. Also there make be snakes.
