Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Good, The Bad, and The What!? The show in which we discuss three films that we have deemed "good," "bad," or "what!?" within a subgenre, theme, motif, director or actor's filmography, and more!

This week, Ryan and Chris dive into action movie vanity projects; films in which the star also directed (or had a very involved hand in the creative process). We start with 1994's "On Deadly Ground," the only film directed by Steven Seagal which is far more fascinating than it has any right to be (given that the notoriously egotistical and difficult Seagal made a film that's less about how he's the biggest, baddest [insert role here], but about environmentalism and the folly of big business). Then, we swing into 1988's "Braddock: Missing in Action III," Chuck Norris' problematic attempt to rewrite the efforts of the Vietnam War (directed by Chuck's brother Aaron Norris). Finally, we "Shimmy Slide" into one of the wildest vanity projects to every be made (and spend nearly half this overlong - one might call "vain" - episode on it): 1993's "Champagne & Bullets," aka "GetEven," a baffling symphony of bizarre decisions written, co-directed, produced, starring, and music written by one-and-done'r John De Hart.
