Welcome to 2021, everyone! We kick off the new year by discussing the boring and nonsensical plot of this film, the unfortunate trajectory of Val Kilmer's career, and get sidetracked talking about the plagued production of The Island of Dr. Moreau. 

"Top o' the mornin'..."

We've made it to the end of 2020 and we're going to go out with a bang! In this episode, we discuss why this film is the patron saint of failed franchise starters in 2020, how bad of an adaptation it is, and the questionable appeal of Josh Gad.

Happy Holidays, friends! We're celebrating the season for Week Four of Disney Plus December!

We talk about the weird directing situation, Keira Knightley's huge performance in this film, if Morgan Freeman is phoning it in, and we also do a little follow-up to last week's discussion on Star Wars and Disney.

"Usually when I'm in situations like this, I like to turn around in the opposite direction."

It's the Disenfranchised Star Wars Holiday Special! Strap into your speeder bikes, folks, because this one is a bumpy ride! We discuss our diverse and complicated feelings on the entire franchise, litigate toxic fandom, and even manage to talk about the movie itself for a bit!

It is week two of "Disney Plus December" and we're headed back to the realm of video games! In this episode, we discuss how faithful of an adaptation this really is, our preference for an unhinged and off-kilter Jake Gyllenhaal, and Stephen gets a lesson in double entendre'.  

"How did it feel strapping that thing to your back and flying like a bat out of hell?"

"It's the closest I'll ever get to Heaven..."

Welcome to Disney Plus December everybody! This week we're discussing a nostalgia bomb from the early 90's! We talk about Timothy Dalton's turn from Bond to Bond-esque Villain, our respective crushes on Jennifer Connolly, and whatever happened to Billy Campbell?

Happy Thanksgiving, friends!

In honor of the holiday, we're going to discuss a Pierce Brosnan spy movie! How festive! So grab a drumstick while we give thanks for Brosnan's spy-focused career, how much this movie completely falls apart in the final act, and how ridiculous that nickname is! 

"Name a shrub after me - something prickly and hard to eradicate."

Ahoy, friends! This week we're discussing, potentially, the only Oscar contender we'll ever see! We talk about award season, our love of Paul Bettany, Brett's misplaced hatred of film critics, and how Stephen just can't get enough of those sea shanties! 

"I've lived long enough to see the future become history, Professor. Empires crumble. There are no exceptions."

"If I attempted to explain, your brain would liquefy and explode."

In this week's episode, we pay tribute to a great man who left us too soon: the incomparable Chadwick Boseman.  We discuss how he's easily the best part of this film, his legacy, and why in Ra's name there aren't any mummies in a film that references the Egyptian afterlife as much as this one!
