That Was Unnecessary

The TWU crew discuss the first sequel in an iconic 80's film franchise. Back when a comedy about inept police officers wouldn't have been considered a little problematic. Full of plenty of action packed sound clips from the movie!! Listen and subscribe! 

The TWU crew discuss David Lynch's original movie version of a novel his eccentric brain should have never attempted to adapt. This ain't your 2021 streaming on HBO Max Dune. I would offer a plot synopsis here but it would make about as much sense as our attempts at explaining it in the episode. Enjoy. Subscribe and tell your friends!

The TWU crew ring in 2022 with Teen Wolf Too (like what I did there?)! The "lost pilot" episode of That Was Unnecessary gets re-recorded... with pretty much the same insights and commentary. We discuss one of the greatest 80's sequels of all time. A personal favorite. The movie that almost ended a young Jason Bateman's career. Try to enjoy! Like and subscribe!

The TWU crew tackle the "body swap" genre with 80's classic (piece of crap) Like Father Like Son. Starring the late Dudley Moore and teen heart throb turned Christian Evangelist Kirk Cameron as father and son. Yup. Like and Subscribe!

The TWU crew discuss another re-make. Steve Martin's attempt to play the iconic Inspector Clouseau that went a little overboard. Featuring another member of Destiny's Child #TWUniverse. Listen and Subscribe. (Don't worry, we talk about the "Hamburger" scene.)

The TWU crew talk about the lowest rated James Bond film on Rotten Tomatoes. Roger Moore's swan song about a crazy Nazi science experiment and the early days of Silicon Valley. With plenty of blonde Walken! Listen, subscribe, and share. 

The TWU crew discuss their first reboot/remake. The reimagining with an all female cast that sparked a lot of (possibly unnecessary) criticism/controversy. Listen as three middle aged men try their best to not sound sexist for a little over an hour. New episodes every other Wednesday!! Please subscribe (thanks). 

The TWU crew tackle their first video game adaptation. Nintendo's first attempt at a major motion picture. The next one wasn't until 26 years later.... Enjoy this very loose, tangent filled episode with several NEW SEGMENTS! Listen and Subscribe please. 

Plot Synopsis:

Not really necessary as it is discussed at a couple different points in this episode. Plus it doesn't make a whole lotta sense anyway. 

The TWU crew discuss one of the 21st centuries first mash up movies. A bad movie with some very controversial scenes and dialogue (especially from a certain member of Destiny's Child). Listen and subscribe please. 

Plot synopsis:

Freddy Krueger has been forgotten by the kids on Elm Street. Their parents have feed them anti-dreaming pills, making Freddy a thing in the past. So Freddy resurrects Jason Voorhees and sends him to Elm Street to create havoc, making people think Kreuger did it. When Jason steals some kills from Freddy, the latter begins to fight the infamous hockey mask-wearing killer. Meanwhile, the group of teenagers stuck in the middle try to figure out how to get rid of Freddy. This all leads to a climatic battle at Camp Crystal Lake.

The TWU crew discuss a movie that was truly "unnecessary". A "comedy" that seems like it was written by a ten year old. That ironically doesn't give a whole lot of screen time to the titular Little Fockers. Please subscribe. This movie features multiple Oscar winners. 

Plot synopsis:

It has taken 10 years, two little Fockers with wife Pam, and countless hurdles for Greg to finally get in with his tightly wound father-in-law, Jack. After the cash-strapped dad takes a job moonlighting for a drug company, however, Jack's suspicions about his favorite male nurse come roaring back. When Greg and Pam's entire clan--including Pam's lovelorn ex, Kevin (Owen Wilson)--descends for the twins' birthday party, Greg must prove to the skeptical Jack that he's fully capable as the man of the house. But with all the misunderstandings, spying, and covert missions, will Greg pass Jack's final test and become the family's next patriarch, or will the circle of trust be broken for good?
