Get ready to cringe, ladies and gentlemen.
Film critic and Turner Classic Movies host Ben Mankiewicz recently made an appearance on the popular web series What the Flick?! to discuss the new George Lucas-produced kids’ movie Strange Magic.
The conversation was going smoothly (The movie apparently sucks, by the way.) until Mankiewicz decided to steer the thing straight into the heart of WTF?! territory by bringing up the topic of incest porn.
Yup. Straight from animated children’s film to freaky fetish stuff in a matter of seconds.
The best part about this story is that Mankiewicz isn’t some random Internet talking head.
In addition to being a revered film expert, Mankiewicz is related to several Hollywood legends, including the guy who co-wrote Citizen Kane!
Needless to say, not many movie buffs expected the proud saga of the Mankiewicz family to take a stop at Incest Porn Junction, but there you have it.
We suppose this incident is quite as bad as the ESPN analyst who tweeted a porn link by accident, but still…incest porn. Did we mention the incest porn?
As if the legacy of Strange Magic wasn’t already tarnished by the fact that it’s a terrible movie, now it’ll forever be associated with Ben Mankiewicz’ wank habits.
We recommend watching this video of a bunny bringing beer to its owner to cleanse your palette. Just please don’t ask Ben Mankiewicz to analyze it afterward.
