Disenfranchised

“It’s been swell. But the swelling has gone down.”

This week, we’re going head first into full chaos with our good friend Tucker! We discuss what happened to Lori Petty, the devotion to the source material, and we fully embrace the randomness by going off on even more tangents than usual!

“HEY, YOU GUYS!”

“What a pity that Bilbo didn't kill that vile creature when he had the chance." 

"Yes, it was pity. Pity and mercy."

We’re back and going after fandoms one again because we just can’t help ourselves! This time, in honor of a couple new fantasy shows, we’re talking the one that started it all! We discuss the puzzling minor changes made to the story, the X-rated history of Bakshi, and Brett decides it’s time to admit his dark secret to the world!

"I don't want to control it. I want to get rid of it."

Part two of Hulkamania is here and it's a doozy! This will be our only opportunity to talk about the MCU and we take full advantage! We'll discuss the troubled production and the egos involved, the landscape of super hero films in 2008, and we once again go for the throat of toxic fandom. Join us, true believers!

“You know what scares me the most? When it happens, when it comes over me...and I totally lose control, I like it.”

It’s smashin’ time! In honor of this week’s release of the new "She-Hulk" series on Disney+, we’re giving you a Hulkamania two-parter! Up first, we're discussing Ang Lee’s vision for the mean green hero. We talk about inspirations for the character, the reassessment this movie has gotten recently, and we finally crown the true patron saint(s?) of the podcast!

"Welcome to a new world of gods and monsters."

It's our hundredth episode, so we're tackling one of the most prominent failed franchise starters of the last decade - 2017's The Mummy and the Dark Universe, the franchise it failed to spawn! Join us as we chat about Tom Cruise, the projected slate of Dark Universe films, our personal theories on why it all failed, and so much more!

"I think I know what that glitch is, Jetson, and I'm looking at him!"

Between the recent (or impending) birth of George Jetson and the recent cancelation of the almost-finished Scoob! sequel, it seems like the perfect time to get into a failed franchise starter about America's favorite space age family! We talk about our history with Hanna-Barbera properties, our thoughts on flavored water, and many more tangential thoughts!

"Man is more frightening than Gojira."

The time has come for us to conclude our 'Big in Japan' theme month and it doesn't get much bigger than 2016's Shin Godzilla! And who better to join us than our friend, filmmaker and former podcast host Samuel Dumas!

Together, we dig into this movie's diverse and updated themes, the evolution of Godzilla for a 21st century audience, and have a spirited debate about the Resident Evil franchise of all things!

This week, "life found a way" and we had to take a quick break from our "Big in Japan" month due to some various personal commitments. In the meantime, please enjoy a peek behind the paywall with our Patreon exclusive show Unenfranchised, where we discuss the films that killed off your favorite franchises!

Back in February, in honor of the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre film, we discussed The Next Generation. Renee Zellweger makes her film debut! The sad state of 90's horror! Brett thinking Matthew McConaughey deserved an Oscar for his performance! Join us. 

“Our job is to find truth, no matter how painful it may be.”

"Big in Japan" month continues and this time we're in the courtroom for what is essentially an extended episode of "Brett's Video Game Corner". We'll discuss director Takashi Miike's style, what it takes to make a good video game adaptation, and how this could potentially be the greatest video game movie of all time?
