It's our 50th episode and some may say that we went off the rails quite some time ago. So no better excuse to look at some of the films that derailed the careers of well known actors and directors.
They were fan favourites, darlings of the box office, too big to fail... and then they come out with a stinker so bad that they're put in movie jail. Some languish there forever, some are released on good behaviour only to offend once more and a rare few serve their time and come out rehabilitated, having learned the error of their ways.
Batman and Robin. the comic book catastrophe that temporarily killed the bat-franchise, Jupiter Ascending, a shocking sci-fi slip up from a pair of legendary directors, and Southland Tales, a disastrously dire follow up to cult hit Donny Darko. We discuss them all.
