~~~WARNING XTRA THICC BEEF~~~

You know the rules: We make a Fresh movie Rotten and a Rotten movie Fresh. When we do these Defenders episodes, I fill my room with sand and rent props and costumes from the Ben Hurr remake. We made @thistim wear chain-mail, hold a scimitar and then have a thoughtful and humorous conversation about the Oscars, musicals, faithful adaptations, powers, the fleeting staying power of CGI heavy movies and then immediately Van Helsing.
