  • Episode 25: “12 Rounds 3: Lockdown”
    Happy Saturday, ScreenTeam! The crew is BACK with episode 25, this time with a review of the incredibly fun (though, very flawed) 2015 Dean Ambrose vehicle, 12 Rounds 3: Lockdown! When disgraced police officer, John Shaw (Ambrose), returns to the force and uncovers a conspiracy, it’s up to him and the twelve rounds in his gun to dispense justice when his corrupt brothers in blue lock down the station. Comedian and writer, Stephen Ku, joins the boys as we delve into the film’s myriad of plotholes (including one that would have cut the movie down to about fifteen minutes), the subject of why the Lunatic Fringe isn’t exactly the best fit for a plucky, likable underdog protagonist, and the boys’ predictions for future installments of the 12 Rounds franchise, including — because, of course — 12 Rounds 12.

    Did You Know? During the movie’s oddly progressive sex scene in the beginning, the song heard in the background mentions none than the “Nature Boy,” himself, Ric Flair! Is anyone seriously surprised? Remember, ladies — none of you can be first, but ONE of you, can be next.

  • Episode 24: “Barricade”
    In the Kiefer Sutherland episode of On This Very Screen, the boys celebrate Paolo’s 30th birthday by unpacking WWE Studios’ first non-Superstarred feature film that totally isn’t The Shining — the horror-mystery-thriller, Barricade (2012)! Starring the curiously-cast Eric McCormack of Will and Grace fame, this flicks tells the tale of a widowed single father who’s haunted by the ghosts of his past after taking his kids up to a desolate snowy mountain cabin. In the review, the boys (joined by very funny stand-up comedian, Mean Dave) are divided by the movie’s refreshingly bold (and arguably unfocused) approach to both screenwriting and editing, while still having quite the thoughtful discussion about what makes an effective horror movie. Later on, they recast Eric McCormack in the lead role with WWE Superstars, and read off a hilarious “face turn/heel turn” review from the edgiest youth ministry teacher in America.

    Did You Know? The director of this movie also helmed 2006’s zombie satire, “Fido,” starring Billy Connelly, who — according to Marc — may or may not have been a part of “Montell Python.”

  • Episode 23: “Scooby-Doo! & WWE: Curse of the Speed Demon!”
    Ahoy, ScreenTeam! The boys are back this show to celebrate OTVS’s first birthday with none other than the much-awaited sequel to Scooby-Doo! & WWE: Wrestlemania Mystery — the rip-roaring, goofy as-all-hell ode to WWE Crush Hour, Scooby-Doo & WWE: Curse of the Speed Demon! When the WWE’s newest business venture (Wacky Racers, what?) is threatened  by a vengeful zombie-demon in a souped up monster truck, it’s up to the Undertaker and Mystery Inc. to solve the case and ensure Muscle Moto X doesn’t go the way of the XFL. In this episode, the boys dive headfirst into the film’s never-ending parade of red herrings, the unbelievable amount of references to the first movie, and the most bonkers iteration of the Undertaker ever before seen on screen! Think you know who the bad guy is when the mask comes off? THINK AGAIN!

    Did You Know? This is the last WWE appearance of the “American Dream,” Dusty Rhodes, daddeh, and there won’t be any shitty joke, here. Rock your polka dots for this one, folks.

  • Episode 22: “The Marine 4: Moving Target”
    On this week’s episode of On This Very Screen, the boys are joined in the studio by a very special guest, none other than “Broseph” Joe Brody, himself — the face of wrestling cult phenomenon, Hoodslam — AJ Kirsch!  In the first part of the show, AJ and the guys talk about Hoodslam’s beginnings and its recent great run of press (this mini-doc from AJ+ is particularly remarkable), the inspirations behind the “Broseph” Joe Brody character, as well as his current run on Dwayne Johnson’s weekly promo-battle competition, Rock The Promo!  A can’t-miss interview from one of our favorite guests, yet!

    But of course, what episode wouldn’t be complete without a review from WWE Studios? This episode, the four of them take on The Marine 4: Moving Target, a feature-length escort mission (yay!) starring Mike “The Miz” Mizanin (reprising his role as Jake Carter from The Marine 3: Homefront), Melissa Roxburgh as the VIP he’s been assigned to protect, and Total Divas’ Summer Rae as… well, a lazily-named sniper who may or may not have been ripped off from Metal Gear Solid V. Are you a fan of never-ending gunfights, whiny female “characters,” and multiple references to the Resident Evil series? This is the show for you!

    Did You Know? We mention it at the end of this episode, but it cannot be ignored that the writer of this movie, Alan B. Mcelroy, has more than a few movies under his belt: the original “Marine,” “The Condemned 2,” “Tekken,” and one of the worst-reviewed movies in cinematic history — “Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever.” The boys’ reactions to this news, you have to hear.

  • Episode 21: “Inside Out”
    After a short hiatus/summer vacation, the boys are back in the studio to talk about what they’ve done in the last two months as well as review the meandering, though absolutely mesmerizing, crime yarn that is Inside Out (2011), starring Triple H, Michael Rapaport, and Parker Posey. In this flick (that’s otherwise a serious reboot to The Chaperone), the Game stars as AJ, a newly-released ex-con who finds himself caught up in a counterfeit cigarette (yes, cigarettes) racket that slowly begins to pull him back into a life of crime. The boys try to decipher who this movie’s actually supposed to be about, the abject horror of getting shot in the dick (R.I.P., Sylvester), and how we inexplicably try to make WWE movies more complex than they actually are. We also run into one of the biggest left turns we’ve ever seen during our face turn/heel turn segment as one WWE fan is very particular about what he wants to see in his WWE Studios movies.
    We’re halfway through the catalog! SUBSCRIBE to the gang on iTunes and Stitcher, LIKE us on Facebook and FOLLOW the show on Twitter for everything OTVS and WWE Studios.
    Did You Know? Triple H was refreshingly candid in the promotional lead-up to this movie about having to replace Dave “Batista” Bautista in the starring role. Whether this means Dave owes him a favor and will even let him have a sniff of the “Guardians of the Galaxy 2” set remains to be seen.

  • Episode 20: “The Reunion”
    “JOHN CENA ON A HORSE” is really all you need to know about the twentieth episode of OTVS, where we review a movie that’s one-part City Slickers,  one-part Four Brothers, and a little bit of any Mexican drug cartel movie, ever — The Reunion. In this John Cena vehicle (also starring Ethan Embry, Amy Smart, and Boyd Holbrook), four siblings find out their abusive father has died, and — in order to secure $12M from his will, the siblings (okay, really just the brothers, because men and stuff) — have to start a business together and run it for two years. You’d think this movie was a comedy until suddenly it turns into an action flick involving a nebulous kidnapping  plot featuring the most unlikable victim in cinematic history, a Gary Stu character for the ages, and the least likely criminal mastermind this side of Heat. There are twists abound in this glorious trainwreck of a flick, and you won’t believe how we go about it during the recommendations and subsequent face turn/heel turn.
    And of course we talk about the Hardy segment from TNA — SUBSCRIBE to the gang on iTunes and Stitcher, LIKE us on Facebook and FOLLOW the show on Twitter for everything OTVS and WWE Studios.
    Did You Know? In this episode, Marc brings up Ethan Embry as T.B. Player from “That Thing You Do,” who — in that movie — talks about shaking Hass’ hand from the TV show, “Bonanza.” In “The Reunion,” Embry goes on to describe John Cena as Hass. Coincidence, or incredibly lame Easter egg? You be the judge.

  • Episode 19: “Dead Man Down”
    The OTVS crew is back again at Faultline Studios to talk big names and squandered scripts in WWE Studios’ most star-studded film to date, Dead Man Down! Starring everyone’s favorite Irish brooder, Colin Farrell, this gritty, revenge-driven crime thriller grabs Terrence Howard (Empire), Dominic Cooper (Captain America, AMC’s Preacher) and Noomi Rapace (Prometheus, The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo) for a ponderous “coulda-been” that Paolo describes as the “Brock Lesnar shooting star press” of WWE Studios. Call it a half-assed attempt at the Punisher origin, or Donnie Brasco without what made Donnie Brasco so great, but whatever you call it — just make sure Terrence Howard isn’t in the room to hear this episode! Also, did I mention that Jeff Hardy shows up in this show? Trust us, you’ll love it.

  • Episode 18: “The Condemned 2”
    Ahoy, ScreenTeam! Before Marc gets his sailor suit back on for his second Backstreet Boys cruise next week, the OTVS crew (along with special guest, stand-up comic Dash Kwiatkowski, in his second review) returns with a hilarious breakdown of WWE’s latest Randy Orton offering, The Condemned 2! A sequel to the Stone Cole Steve Austin-led murderthon-in-the-jungle, The Condemned 2 sees Will Tanner (Orton) as a reformed bounty hunter bail enforcer pursued by his former team as the country’s bloodthirsty elite gamble on his survival. In this episode, the gang pulls the curtain back on the rough and tumble world of “bail enforcement,” how to properly react when all your friends are trying to kill you, and a wildly funny look into the daily lives of employees at a struggling murder-table factory (it’ll make sense, trust me).

    Did You Know? Long-time Abrigo favorite, Eric Roberts, is no stranger to movies starring professional wrestlers. He was in “The Expendables” with Stone Cold Steve Austin, “The Dark Knight,” with Tiny “Zeus” Lister, and “Dead Or Alive” with Kevin Nash doing his best impression of Hulk “Who?” Hogan.

  • Episode 17: “Countdown”
    On This Very Screen is here to show the world (here to show the world) when the gang teams up with The Best Damn Nerd Show’s James Kincaid to review WWE’s newest release, Countdown! The completely-bonkers trailer for WWE superstar Dolph Ziggler’s race-against-time thriller set the internet wrestling community on fire a month ago, and we jumped into the studio to not only record an episode, but a separate OTVS-style (i.e., crazy as all hell) commentary to be released next week as a bonus podcast for all our listeners on the ScreenTeam! Does this movie live up to the batshit campiness advertised in the trailer? How do WWE Hall of Famer, Isaac Yankem, and fellow WWE Studios alum, Katherine Isabelle, measure up in a non-See No Evil related role? And perhaps most importantly… what is this movie about, again? All this and more will be answered (hopefully) in episode seventeen!

    Did You Know? Internet wrestling darling, Dolph Ziggler, is not only known for his wicked ability to sell, but his ability to sling jokes as well. Keep an eye out for his stand-up on the L.A. comedy scene, in between his wrestling career and copious amounts of athletic sex.
