September 18, 2024 20 - The Angry Birds Movie (2016)
PLAYTIME’S OVER
Want to start a successful animated family-friendly movie franchise? There’s an app for that.
We discuss the app-tly named The Angry Birds Movie until we’re red in the face. In 2025, we’re both going to have to purchase adult tickets to see The Angry Birds Movie 3 - an embarrassing and necessary sacrifice for the art of podcasting.

August 18, 2024 19 - Borderlands (2024)
CHAOS LOVES COMPANY
Bored-erlands? Boredom-lands? Is this original joke Bordering on Landing?
A self-fulfilling prophecy as this movie casts itself into the borderlands alongside most “cursed” video game movies. Whilst television boasts series like The Last Of Us and Fallout, it’s disappointing to see that tasteless, humourless, heartless movies like this one are still being blindingly adored by fans that love nothing more than recognising characters.

August 14, 2024 18 - Gran Turismo (2023)
FROM GAMER TO RACER
That sums up the move in as few words as possible - this podcast does the opposite of that, so BUCKLE UP.
That was a bit of a joke about cars. Whilst we may have taken an extended PIT STOP due to some SPEED BUMPS, we didn’t CRASH AND BURN. We’ve SHIFTED GEARS to RACE through the TWISTS AND TURNS of this TURBO CHARGED movie.
We’re so back.

September 06, 2023 17 - Dynasty Warriors (2021)
真·三國無雙
Normally we put the tagline of the movie above, however, the tagline is in Chinese. Instead, the characters above have been haphazardly copied from Wikipedia. Guy says he’ll get it tattooed on him if this video gets 2 or more views.
This movie is our first and last foreign-language film, and is as easy to follow with either subs or dubs. We at Badaptation Pod are vehemently against the idea of one of those, but we’ll let you decide.

August 02, 2023 16 - Silent Hill (2006)
WE’VE BEEN EXPECTING YOU
If you haven’t seen this movie, this may be hard to follow. If you HAVE seen this movie, this still may be hard to follow.
This is by far the strangest movie we’ve covered so far, it was nice to have something that wasn’t a zombie/action flick. Hopefully you think it’s nice too.

July 19, 2023 15 - Resident Evil Extinction (2007)
ALL BETS ARE OFF
It’s a good thing all bets are off, because we bet we wouldn’t enjoy any more of this franchise. But we’re back, Alice is back, LJ is back too, for some reason.
The number of movies in this franchise is slightly overwhelming (verging on simply whelming), however, it helps to know that there’s only 6, not 7, as we frequently incorrectly spout throughout this episode - an unforgivable crime.

July 05, 2023 14 - Dead Trigger (2017)
UNKILLED
Did somebody say Dead Trigger? Huh? What? I swear I heard someone say Dead Trigger! Nobody said Dead Trigger? Nobody, ever? Well, dang.
Luckily for you, we’ve recorded and published an entire episode dedicated to this movie you’ve never heard of, based on a game you’ve never heard of. You’re welcome?

June 21, 2023 13 - Sonic The Hedgehog (2020)
GOTTA GO FAST
First Mario, now Sonic? What WON’T we cover? We won’t cover video games based on movies (that would be so expensive), please stop asking.
It’s the first movie in what will become at least a trilogy, and we dawdle our way through talking about it

June 08, 2023 12 - Hitman (2007)
HITMAN
Man, was Hitman a hit? Or was Hitman s**t? We let you know what we think, which should now be what you think.
We have almost 90 minutes worth of stuff to say about this serious movie based on an unserious franchise. Dive into the “Nation of Badaptation” as we dive into “The World of Assassins”.

May 24, 2023 11 - Tekken (2010)
SURVIVAL IS NO GAME
We’re Tekken a look at a fighting game franchise that isn’t Street Fighter for the first time. Your favourite character may or may not make an appearance in this film, depending on your taste.
What happens if you take all of the supernatural elements out of Tekken and use a weird portion of the available characters set in a post-apocalyptic world? Honestly, so weird that you ask that because they made a movie about that. We talk about it in this episode.
