Ryan and Nathan take a fond look back at one of Jonah Hill's most underappreciated efforts in The Sitter, from beloved indie filmmaker turned pot and horror wizard David Gordon Green. They then ruminate on the merits of Harrison Ford's acting abilities for a lengthy period of time. Thanks for joining us.

The Sitter

 As we were deciding upon which movies to cover in this Movies that are Good batch, one film rose to the surface. One movie was at the centre of all our ideas around this batch. That movie is My Favorite Martian, starring Christopher Lloyd and Jeff Daniels. That's right after all these years we are finally doing it. Hold on to your Zoots!

My Favorite Martian

Ryan and Nathan take a trip back to the year 2000 for The 6th Day, a movie we are asserting is at least "good" by our metrics. We then talk about the political era of the time as far as we can recall it and end a little sadder than when we came in. Sometimes that is just how it goes.

The 6th Day

Ryan and Nathan begin a new batch of movies that didn't click with audiences, critics (or both) when they first came out. The Cable Guy got a lot of press for how much money they paid Jim Carrey, but it also stands out as a pretty distinct 90s comedy.

The Cable Guy

Well this is it, we've reached the end of our Bad Investments batch. Hopefully Hollywood isn't listening and can continue to release face palm movies forever (some of them are kind of fun). Hopefully you'll learn some valuable lessons too. Specifically how not to spend hundreds of millions of dollars on a movie based on a board game, just as an example.

Whoops, Barry Allen broke reality. Spaghetti is everywhere. The broccoli has spoiled in the fridge. Pandemonium. Can Ryan and Nathan make sense of the mess that is The Flash before large, CG orbs crash into each other and end the universes? Join us to find out.

The Flash

Battleship may be a product you've heard of, but is that enough of a justification for a 220 million dollar movie? Ryan and Nathan discuss this in the latest look at Bad Investments Hollywood has made over the years. Thanks for joining us.

Morbius

Disney manages to outdo itself in the box office bomb category with The Lone Ranger, a grand throwback to simpler times that has its charms, but boy did they bet several farms to make it. Ryan and Nathan try to untangle the somewhat ungainly plot with mutant rabbits, ivory gun legs and heart eating cannibals in this week's look at big swings and misses. Thanks for joining us.

The Lone Ranger

The mystery of why Rob Cohen didn't direct the xXx sequel is solved in this week's look at Stealth, another box office failure from the summer of 2005. This one takes some surprising turns as the marketing for this film focused on three things, Jamie Foxx, Jessica Biel's body and an evil A.I. plane. But only one of those things is as advertised.
